In a village in the hills
|
House buried to the window sills in snow
|
In a prison yard at night
|
An Alsatian barking for the stars to go
|
|
In the attic of a house
|
In the slats of light which creep across the room
|
In a forest grove at dawn
|
Where the animals sleep hidden in the gloom
|
|
On the 97th floor overlooking Tokyo
|
In Camden road in a second floor flat with
|
Dilworth down below
|
There is only one thing
|
There is only one thing
|
|
In a cancer ward where the patients sit
|
Waiting patiently to die
|
In an aeroplane high above the place
|
You finally left behind
|
|
In a cage where only one thing could be free
|
And it's not you and I
|
In a cage where only one thing could be free
|
And it's not you and I
|
|
In every single place that has ever, ever been
|
Hiroshima, Los Angeles and each town in between
|
There is only one thing
|
There is only one thing
|
One thing
|
|
In the darkest part of you that you have ever seen
|
In the smile of the child staring at the TV screen
|
In the diary of a priest, in the sheets that lie upon his bed
|
Out there amongst the waves and inside your lover's head
|
|
There is only one thing [x6]
|
There is only one... thing
|
|
20 years asleep before we sleep... forever
|
20 years asleep before we sleep... forever...
