| I’m a lonely man walking lonely streets
|
| I’m soaked to the skin with the pain of my unease
|
| From such a strained existence
|
| The tension in this world keeps me from sleep
|
| I’m hungry and cold
|
| There’s a weight hanging over my shoulders
|
| A rain black cloud of doubt
|
| Have I got enough love
|
| Have I got enough hope?
|
| Enough strength to face the world each day?
|
| I know there’s an answer somewhere in this night
|
| I see her each time I look in your eyes
|
| I’m walking in a wild place
|
| I am banging on the gates
|
| On the other side of the tracks babe
|
| Hoping that someone’s gonna hear me pray
|
| Oh there’s a dawn chorus breaking out all over the town
|
| Will you say you want me
|
| Will I say I want you?
|
| Will you say you love me
|
| When I’m stripped and forced to stand up naked
|
| And will I still love you
|
| The goal that I want can’t exist without fire
|
| And you fire the thoughts that realise all my dreams
|
| These are a grown man’s tears
|
| I lost all faith, I lost all hope
|
| I started drinking, life became a joke
|
| Something would keep me going
|
| I didn’t know what it was
|
| But I saw it each time I looked in your eyes
|
| I’m walking in a wild place
|
| I am banging on the gates
|
| On the other side of the tracks babe
|
| Hoping that someone’s gonna hear me pray
|
| Oh there’s a dawn chorus breaking out all over the town
|
| Oh my god
|
| Why do I feel the doubt
|
| You give me something I can’t live without
|
| Yet from somewhere there comes an emptiness
|
| A feeling that I can’t suppress
|
| Is this the start of the beginning or the point of no return?
|
| There’s an answer there
|
| When I look in your eyes
|
| I’m walking in a wild place
|
| I am banging on the gates
|
| On the other side of the tracks babe
|
| Where all my doubts are now laid away away away away
|
| I’m walking in a wild place
|
| I am banging on the gates
|
| On the other side of the tracks babe
|
| Where someone answered my prayers
|
| Oh there’s a dawn chorus breaking out all over the town
|
| (That's too sad) |
