Boomtown Rats

Boomtown Rats - Dave lyrics

Dave'd called me up yesterday

Everything he loved had moved away

I felt despair come crawling through that phone

I know the feeling but don't get me wrong

Dave I've always thought that you were touched by fate

It's never easy but why throw it away?

Maybe you were both chasing this

Flirt with death but never kiss her,

Dave

Oh, I keep dreaming, I'll set the scene,

So what's a fiver? Why so mean?

The golden moment, the blinding gleam

It's all over, that's too cheap.

I see you bleed,

I know you feel the squeeze,

But please,

Believe,

The view from on your knees

Deceives

Keep going.

Dave,

I know you're empty, I know you're numb

And you can't function, I know that you're drunk

But Dave I've always felt that you were touched by fate

The thing that gets me is the stupid waste.

So pick it up and don't put it down,

A newer story in another town

I see you bleed

I know you feel the squeeze

Time heals

Believe,

Then it will seem you dreamed these things,

Long Ago.
