I'm a man of many colours:
|
Only yesterday I was blue.
|
Ten days from now, I'll be different
|
And so will you.
|
Written there in capital letters
|
So as not to be misunderstood
|
Making sure I'm clear,
|
Telling bad from good.
|
Two weeks ago in Tokyo,
|
A man from Islamabad:
|
Selling shells back to the rebels,
|
Shells they never had.
|
All is clear: I can see for miles and miles.
|
I can hear your footsteps in my heart.
|
Somebody make me an offer
|
I've got to get away from here, ooh, ooh, ooh.
|
Driving hard through the snow-drift
|
Like a moth to a naked light
|
To keep an appointment in Zurich
|
With a man who hears footsteps in the night.
|
Tired of what he's been doing,
|
What it's done to his life...
|
Getting most if what he needed
|
Has left him with less than he had.
|
All is clear: I can see for miles and miles.
|
All I hear are your footsteps in my heart.
