Hazel O'Connor - Tell Me A Story lyrics

© Hazel O`Connor

Grey skies, up above

Smokey London ain't you got any love

Empty faces, they don't care

Nobody gives too much cos nobody dare

Nobody dare ah ha,

Nobody dare ah ha

Sunshine comes out it seems

Brings to life light shattered dreams

Hopes and fears of all the years

Are met inside of these glistening tears

Oh the tears ah ha

of the years ah ha

And you, I'm reaching for you to

Just tell me a story now

I listen to you

I've been lonely too

Just a story to crack the ice

I listen to you,

I've been lonely too

I've seen scars all over the place

I've seen people who just couldn't keep up the pace

I've seen a man shot down dead

I've seen just another story

Everybody read in the news today ah ha

In the news today ah ha

You, I'm reaching for you to

Just tell me a story now

I listen to you

I've been lonely too

Just a story to crack the ice

I listen to you,

I've been lonely too

I remember long before

So called friends came through that door

I remember but where are those friends now

You, I'm reaching for you to

Just tell me a story now

I listen to you

I've been lonely too

Just a story to crack the ice

I listen to you,

I've been lonely too
