Listening Pool - Oil For The Lamps Of China lyrics

So where's the place you call home?

Somewhere to call your own

You need some time to be alone

Somewhere to light up your life

And maybe you'll hold on tight

But now I hope it turns out right

You'd better stop sitting back

And open up your eyes

When are you gonna stop and realise

This is your prize

And now you're lying down

In an old forgotten town

Keep on hoping, Keeping hope alive

Oil for the lamps of China

You've gotta believe in your pride

Shining from far and wide

Don't you think it's justified?

Somewhere to take by surprise

Under the moonlit skies

Now I hope it turns out right

But you'd better stop looking back

And open up your mind

Who are you gonna try and hope to find

One of your kind?

So here's the black and white

When you're running out of time

Keep on hoping, keeping hope alive

Oil for the lamps of China
