Well here I am, back in town
|
Just as the night is comin¡¯ down
|
Warm wind blowin¡¯ through the trees
|
I watch them swing, I watch them sway
|
Lie here waiting for the day.
|
|
Sleep won¡¯t come, I need a drink
|
Stop my head, don¡¯t wanna think
|
Wishing I could be with you
|
But I know you¡¯re so far away
|
And I¡¯m here waiting for the day.
|
|
Water of life pour your light down on me
|
Take me out of this darkness, sweet star of the sea
|
Water so sweet you can open my eyes
|
You can bring down the rain on this desert so dry.
|
|
Out on the street, shadows fall
|
Silence speaks, I hear it call
|
City of the living dead
|
Count the lights on the motorway
|
Lie here waiting for the day (alright).
|
|
Water of life pour your light down on me
|
Take me out of this darkness, sweet star of the sea
|
Water so sweet you can open my eyes
|
You can bring down the rain on this desert so dry.
|
|
Yes here I am, back in town
|
Just as the night is comin¡¯ down
|
Warm wind blowin¡¯ through the trees
|
I watch them swing, I watch them sway
|
Lie here waiting for the day (alright)
