My Brave Face (1988 Demo) Songtext
von Paul McCartney

My brave, My brave, My brave face

I′ve been living in style
Unaccustomed as I am
To the luxury life
I've been hitting the town
And it didn′t hit back.

I've been doing the rounds
Unaccustomed as I am
To the time on my hands
Now I don't have to tell anybody
When I′m going to get back.

Ever since you went away
I′ve had this sentimental inclination
Not to change a single thing
As I pull the sheet back on the bed
I want to go bury my head
In your pillow.


Now that I'm alone again
I can′t stop breaking down again
The simplest things set me off again
And take me to that place

Where I can't find my brave face
Where I can′t find my brave face
My brave, my brave, my brave face.
My brave face.

I've been living a lie
Unaccustomed as I am
To the work of a housewife
I′ve been breaking up
Dirty dishes and throwing them away.

Ever since you left I have been trying to
Compose a 'baby will you please come home' note
Meant for you.
As I clear away another
Untouched t.v. dinner


From the table I laid for two.
Now that I′m alone again
I can′t stop breaking down again
The simplest things set me off again
And take me to that place
Where I can't find my brave face
Where I can′t find my brave face
My brave, my brave, my brave face.
My brave face.
