Well, I walked in the pouring rain And I heard the voice that cries "it's all in vain" The face of doom was shining in my room I just need one day somewhere far away Lord, I just need one day
[Chorus:] Well, I'll be breaking these rocks until the kingdom comes And I'll be cuttin' this hay until the kingdom comes Yes, I'll be breaking these rocks until the kingdom comes It's my price to pay until the Kingdom comes
The river's so muddy, but it may come clear And I know too well what's keeping me here I'm just a slave of a burning ray Give me the night, I can't take another sight Please give me the night.
[Chorus]
The sun keeps beating down, the wall's a mile high Up in the towers they're watching me, hoping I'm gonna die But they'll open these cells when the kingdom comes I won't be breaking no rocks when the kingdom comes Yes, they'll open these cells when the kingdom comes I won't hear their talk when the kingdom comes I'm going up for a pardon when the kingdom comes Well, pardon me when the kingdom comes I won't be breaking no rock I won't be breaking no rock I won't be breaking no rock When the kingdom comes
You were living five lives in one Taking everyone's coat, Why can't you show them What you've got in your cloak? Cold hand on my shoulder, A star begins to beam, That's when you show me Your souvenir from a dream
Empty handed, I awake, Just when I thought I had So much at stake, Seems you've got something to say, Why don't you say it?
(No mister, this is Plattsburgh... Gotta go back to the junction About five miles... I think you've come the wrong way... You were supposed to make a right turn)
Thirty lights in a row, Every one of them green, How it reminds me Of your souvenir from a dream.
Empty handed, I awake, Just when I thought I had So much at stake, Seems you've got something to say, Why don't you say it?
You were living five lives in one You were living five lives in one
(Mister, you went the wrong way... I think you better go back... Should have made a right turn... I don't think this is where you want to go... No, you better just go back... I think you made a wrong turn somewhere.)
Well, the ruins are the big attraction around here The main draw, as they say But such contraction is hard to bear Let's clear it away Clear it away Clear it away Clear it away
I used to crack a lot of safes Now, here I am dealing scrap It's a living but not a life What a beautiful, oh what a beautiful trap Let's clear it away Let's clear it away Let's clear it away
Well, the ruins are the big attraction around here And there you are in search of novelty You take a big bite of your appetite And then you tell me that I'm starving - Oh no Let's clear it away Clear it away Oh, let's clear it away Let's clear it away Clear it away Let's clear it away Clear it away
Well, the ruins are the big attraction around here
You do the moon You do the snake, Everywhere you go You make the right mistake, You take a picture And lay it in my tray Some kind of window, Just like the Milky Way.
I don't understand, Must be the grip of love, Sure had it in your hand, Must be the grip of love. We did so many things, You found out how I felt, Now you say, "Get lost!", Well don't that buckle my belt?
I don't understand, Must be the grip of love, Sure had it in your hand, Must be the grip of love.
I guess you've got the grip of love.
Must be the grip of love, Must be the grip of love, Must be the grip of love, Sure had it in your hand, Must be the grip of love.

I've been given a fortune A fortune in lies So spoke Laura As she closed her eyes One by one The lights are going out Names are forgotten There's darkness in the house
So Laura came to the water Without a word on her breath So Laura came to the water
Where is the fellow who knows her by heart Who cares not a thing for those dealing in part There comes a coolness To the palm of her hand As she watches the lilies Blooming in the sand
So Laura came to the water Without a word on her breath So Laura came to the water
So Laura came to the water Without a word on her breath So Laura came to the water
So Laura came to the water Without a word on her breath So Laura came to the water
Well there was something in that look of yours Something like a play on words. I see your horse, he's reared up his head Could it be something he's read? Now, we must say adieu I'll send a postcard from Waterloo You always said that I'd, I'd really like the view.
Oh, those great plains so quiet and still Tell me who belongs and I'll tell you who will. We stood apart from everything Where no wind blows, no birds sing So now we must say adieu I'll send a postcard from Waterloo You always said that I'd, I'd really like the view.
And now you ask me do I need a shield What I need is an open field. I recall the actor's advice That nothing happens until it happens twice. So now we must say adieu I'll send a postcard from Waterloo Well, I suppose that's the least that I could do. Now we must say adieu I'll send a postcard from Waterloo You always said that I'd, I'd really like the view.
All afternoon ... gazing at the moon ... Well, I'm forgetting things before I think them. The stars are out ... they're writing on my brow Your names your qualities I could drink them
Deep, deep pulsation Deep, deep penetration
You say "OK please get me what I need" Well I'm sorry, I can't find it, please don't hate me. You glow in the dark ... whispering in sparks ... You say "I'm dripping wet ..."
Deep, deep pulsation Deep, deep penetration
You build a ladder and you lay it on the ground Then you move away, you move away, you move away Without a sound
Deep red is the carpet Burgundy are the drapes There's wine at every table But there's no one there to have a taste
Let go the mansion, Rita, leave it alone, Let go the mansion, it's not your home.
I have a dream, a dream so fine And in this dream nothing was mine, And I heard you say unto me That in my dream, there's too much to see
Let go the mansion, Rita, leave it alone, Let go the mansion, it's not your home. Let go the mansion, Rita, leave it alone, Let go the mansion, it's not your home.
We've both heard advice so many times Wasn't meant for you and yours, or me and mine.
Let go the mansion, Rita, leave it alone, Let go the mansion, it's not your home. Let go the mansion, Rita, leave it alone, Let go the mansion, it's not your home.
Wine at every table Wine at every table Wine at every table Wine at every table
Thunder ... Thunder and lightning One drop of rain on the back of my hand How I ... ooh I How I love to wander Someone came in the middle of the night Threw me in a room without walls.
Yes, I love to wander A cold wind slapped my face And another time to shut down Well, my arms they felt so weak and strong Under your window, well it shone like a light Tonight the air has teeth I wish I had another way to breathe And all you, you ever say All you ever say All you ever say, is .. Stop Breakin' in my heart.
And so it came to pass Breakin' in my heart That is, once upon a time Breakin' in my heart I saw the color that sent the geese south Breakin' in my heart I saw the color, your golden mouth Breakin' in my heart I saw the color that whistles far away Breakin' in my heart I saw the color; I walked away Breakin' in my heart
Deep in your dark eyes Breakin' in my heart Deep where the daylight searches Breakin' in my heart I keep waitin' and waitin' Breakin' in my heart About a moment of gold Breakin' in my heart Breakin' in my heart Breakin' in my heart Breakin' in my heart Breakin' in my Breakin' in my Breakin' in my Breakin' in my heart.
Watching the curtains tremble, Time trickling away, On a bright and freezing afternoon. I remember oh so well The sweetness in your voice, When you said I belong to you, Honey I do.
You know I gotta say to myself, "O foolish heart, silly thing, You hear any old tune and you sing, You sing..."
Seasons pass... It's so quiet, I hear the raindrops Splashing on the leaves Somehow it brings your face to mine. And the tapping of a branch On my window pane, Somehow it's ravaging my sense of time, My sense of time...
I gotta say to myself, "O foolish heart, silly thing, You hear any old tune and you sing, You sing..." I say to myself, "O foolish heart, crazy thing, You hear any old tune and you sing, You sing..."
My foolish heart
You know I tell myself, "O foolish heart, silly thing, You hear any old tune and you sing, You sing..." I say to myself, "O foolish heart, crazy thing, You hear any old tune and you sing, You sing..."
Falling silent again Silent again Falling silent again It turns like a key Turns like a key in a lock Turning at last Turning Turning at last Turning
We spring one too many leaks One too many leaks One too many leaks Taking on too much water Too much water Too much water
It comes as no surprise No surprise. We're wearing thin We're wearing thin We're wearing thin We're wearing. There's that old house of colors again. There's that old house of colors again. Colors again Colors again
Just a trickle from a rock Just a trickle from a rock Just a trickle from a rock Your hidden spring Your hidden spring Just a trickle from a rock Just a trickle from a rock And there's the River Joy The River Joy The River Joy
Dancing again Dancing again Dancing again Dancing again Dancing again Dancing again Dancing again Dancing again Dancing again Dancing again Dancing again Dancing again Dancing again Dancing again Dancing again
Well those days on the mountain I remember so well Like walking around in the ring of a bell. Yeah those days on the mountain I remember so well. Our clothes? Our clothes always clean there's nothing to tell. Those days on the mountain I remember so well Like walking around in the ring of a bell Walking around in the ring of a bell.
Deep is the longing that I feel, It's like a light that goes right through This darkness I've been working in, Trying to do so much for you. To feel you close to me this way Much closer than the air I breathe, I come to recognise my fate As something you've already seen.
(Walk) I've been walking till it ain't true, I've been walking five miles of you.
It's a kind of paradise, your smile, But why I haven't got a clue, It's something I would like to solve, The mystery of the pleasure of you.
(Walk) I've been walking till it ain't true, I've been walking five miles of you, Five miles of you.
Walking out in the wind and light, Before me I see only you. Walking out in the wind and light Into the mystery of you
I've been walking till it ain't true, I've been walking five miles of you, I've been walking till it ain't true, I've been walking five miles of you, I've been walking till it ain't true, I've been walking five miles of you, (Walk)
