All the towers of ivory are crumbling
|
And the swallows sharpen their beaks
|
This is the time of our great undoing
|
This is the time that I'll come running
|
Straight to you, for I am captured
|
Straight to you for I am captured one more time
|
|
The light in our window is fading
|
The candle gutters on the ledge
|
Well now sorrow it comes a stealing
|
And I'll cry girl but I'll come running
|
Straight to you for I am captured
|
Straight to you for I am captured once again
|
|
And gone are the days of rainbows
|
And gone are the nights of swinging from the stars
|
For the sea will swallow up the mountain
|
And the sky will throw thunderbolts and sparks
|
Straight at you, but I'll come running
|
Straight to you, but I'll come running one more time
|
|
Heaven has denied us it's kingdom
|
The saints are drunk and howling at the moon
|
And the chariots of angels are colliding
|
Well I'll run babe, I'll come running
|
Straight to you for I am captured
|
Straight to you for I am captured one more time
|

Straight To You
