David & The Citizens - Oblivion lyrics
Won't you dry the tears in my eyes,
won't you walk me trough the night,
won't you help me leave this stinking shadow behind,
there is no story to tell,
there is no magic,
i was given a life and i lived it,
i was given two hands and i used them,
I was given a heart and I lost it - in your eyes.
But your eyes are gone,
but your eyes are gone into oblivion.
It's snow in the air and it's spring in the ground,
thats dragging itselfs around and around(?)
And I'm laughing loud to melt the ice
- I played the clown again.
And somewere in betwen the clouds,
someweare in this roundabout(?)
ther's a boy that screams for life,
There is love and there is life -in your eyes.
But your eyes are gone,
but your eyes are gone into oblivion.
How long?
How long?
Kick one off the sheats - one down
Another one will come around
my head is spinning,
I try to stand still,
if you se me will you help me?
say you will!
'cos there's a monster inside
and its sees trough my eyes,
and speaks trough my mouth,
and it boot(?) me around
but there is calm - in your eyes.
Time arrives - time awakes,
in this wash across my face,
like when i was a boy back in the old days
like when every breath was uncertain
I held my head up,
I held it high,
I played the cards the best i could,
I thought you understood,
I thought you understood,
everygood thing could survive - in your eyes.
But your eyes are gone,
but your eyes are gone into oblivion.
