Morning people take the news
A paper window on a world They live on undisturbed Thoughts may fly like the lonely birds And lost behind the silent words Voices are unheard Put it down to city life Oh if I understood Passing by so easily I'd reach you if I could Can you hear me Can you hear me Fly like a song, fly while you're singing A song without you, is a bird without winging Some city flights leave in the morning Some city nights end without warning Can you hear me call Evening people see the day A silhouette on every face A shadow on their eyes I take my place within the crowd We walk the dusty streets around Encompassing our lives Put it down to city times Oh if I understood Passing by so casually I'd reach you if I could Can you hear me Can you hear me Fly like a song, fly while you're singing A song without you, is a bird without winging Some city flights leave in the morning Some city nights end without warning Can you hear me call Can you hear me call Can you hear me call [Instrumental] Calling to the sky The thunder drowns my voice within the rain And I know you're near me And I call throughout the storm I know that you don't hear me I call your name I call your name I call your name Can you hear me call your name Can you hear me call Hear me call your name I call your name I call your name Can you hear me call your name [Instrumental] Night time people find it hard To hear themselves above the noise The music holds its own I recognised a place I'd known I turned to find it carved in |

The sisters worked for the people round them
Their Spanish lace wove some bread for the poor And they cared and tried but were worn with Their fears and the years of heartbreak Dust and wine stained the men who knew them The sweat of days in the angry sun And the men were weak, and they cried And they asked, "Sisters, make us holy." The sisters prayed, "Give us hope for something." The men asked, "Where is your God today?" And the empty eyes as the sisters prayed held Their thoughts unspoken There was nothing they could do Earth was dust for miles around Nothing new survived Everything was barren on the land And the truth they tried to understand just died Everything was barren on the land And the truth they tried to understand just died |

I made my dreams then lost them
They left and I went away There's no romance in the memory That's part of yesterday But feelings linger stronger sometimes So hard to disappear When what holds you is a treasure You've stored throughout the years Finding out the hard way The captive heart has lost and won a thousand lovers That place each moment close to living in each other Reaching out for treasures Scattered in their dreams Trying takes a life of loving so it seems So carry on don't stop your feelings Try and make them flow Somewhere there's a vision waiting You'll find it when you know Taking the final curtain That's coming down on you Leaving the play of fools Move onto life you knew Fiding out the hard way No easy path to conquer Trying to compromise Climbing through my anguish I see your fading eyes The captive heart has lost and won a thousand lovers That place each moment close to living in each other Reaching out for treasures Scattered in their dreams Loving takes a life of trying so it seems |

Leaving all their thoughts behind
Passing over timeless wastes of ecstasy Freedom strangled at the source Takes the only charted course That leads them home Their bodies move towards the dawn The light in which a nation born Can only hope, and only weep Their passion may be growing weak How was alone, recall me if you can I feel I am lost within you Many times within the sound of emptiness A light has shown deep in each others soul Keeps them apart, a love now makes them whole Fractured memories tearing at all their dreams Made life and living a faded scene To give a name locked in despair Makes chances of a lifetime course across your eyes To give and get, and yet return Emotion smoulders, starts to burn in harmony They lay within a ruined shell Searching for the time to tell That he who followed endlessly Does not exist, can never be How was alone, recall me if you can I feel I have lost within you A part of what is held inside a deep regret Taking over all that a hearts request Answered by cries from a wilderness Found forgotten lying in deeper sleep Touching once is so hard to keep In emptiness, a light has shown deep in each others soul Keeps them apart, a love now makes them whole Fractured memories tearing at all their dreams Made life and living a faded scene Taking over all that a hearts request Answered by cries from a wilderness Found forgotten lying in deeper sleep Touching once is so hard to keep |
