|
Take heart the pages turning fast
|
I'll be waiting here in the hourglass
|
There's a fire in the heartland
|
There is a dream on every door
|
When the past is a brass band
|
Then you know what you're shooting for
|
|
Brass & batons they fade away
|
They're only moments in the haze
|
Brass & batons like magic wands
|
You wave them once and they're gone
|
|
And the river keeps changin'
|
Johnny works harder every day
|
Got an eye on the good life
|
Fortune's just a day away
|
Sundial with a great hand
|
Sweeping dust across the floor
|
Puts the strain on a sane man
|
Til he knows what he's looking for
|
|
Brass & batons they fade away
|
They're only moments in the haze
|
Brass & batons like magic wands
|
You wave them once and they're gone
|
|
New moon in the evening
|
Playing tricks on my mind
|
I swear I felt you heavy breathing
|
On my neck a thousand times
|
So let's play it like we used to
|
Play it sweet and then
|
I'll meet you in the spotlight
|
When it comes 'round again
|
|
Brass & batons they fade away
|
They're only moments in the haze
|
Brass & batons like magic wands
|
You wave them once and they're gone
|
And their gone
|
