Harbour lights will change your plans
More than judge or jury can
What a sight
Flickerin' like prayers of grace
How could you ever lose this place?
What a sight
But i'm sure i don't stand
A ghost of a chance
To stay here past the time, when all my checks run out
To stay here past the time, when all my checks... run... out
Chinese junks are driftin' in
The foghorn blows its low warnin'
Across the stars
Glistening fluorescent tears
Finally know what kept me here
Harbour lights
And i wonder if you
Are makin' it through
We all hang from a single thread and a thousand truths
We all hang from a single thread and a thousand... truths
Harbour lights will change your plans
More than judge or jury can
What a sight
But i'm sure i don't stand
A ghost of a chance
To stay here past the time, when all my checks run out
And i wonder if you
Are makin' it through
I wonder under which moon do you sleep tonight
I wonder under which moon do you say... good... night

Strange face, with your eyes
So pale and sincere
Underneath you know well
You have nothing to fear
For the dreams that come to you when so young
Told of a life
Where spring is sprung

You would seem so frail
In the cold of the night
When the armies of emotion
Go out to fight
But while the earth sinks to its grave
You sail to the sky
On the crest of a wave

So forget this cruel world
Where i belong
I'll just sit and wait
And sing my song
And if one day you should see me in the crowd
Lend a hand and lift me out
To your place in the cloud

Streaks of light
On the graveyard walk
Your bright star was crashin'
Crashin' the dark
Dreamed of a cold night
To freeze it in place
Dreamed of ship bells and thunder
Ringin' us under
Dreamed all the way home
That you'd never go
Talked up and down it
Mornin', noon and night
Alone in the optimists chair
Said our instincts were right
But now i know the clean choice
Was the worst choice of all
I'd rather feel guilt
Than this desert inside
I'd rather steal wicked
Than lay down in pride
Gone forever
Forever gone
Made a mess of this town
But that's what we always do
Throwin' glass to the floor
Now it's cuttin' right through
More than a year's time
'til ya give up the scheme
My wood matches meltin'
The ghosts from your wedding ring
Never trusted fate
But i wish that i had
Fate is what answered
Your slow cry for help
Fate was your motive
Your fate was yourself
Gone forever
Forever gone
Made a mess of this town
But that's what we always do
Throwin' glass to the floor
Now it's cuttin' right through
Gone forever
Forever gone
I'd rather feel guilt
Than this desert inside
I'd rather steal wicked
Than lay down in pride
Seems like a long time... oooh!

The world is turning, i hope it don't turn away
The world is turning, i hope it don't turn away
All my pictures are falling
From the wall where i placed them yesterday
The world is turning, i hope it don't turn away

I need a crowd of people, but i can't face them day to day
I need a crowd of people, but i can't face them day to day
Though my problems are meaningless
That don't make them go away
I need a crowd of people, but i can't face them day to day

I went to the radio interview, but i ended up alone at the microphone
I went to the radio interview, but i ended up alone at the microphone
Now i'm living out here on the beach
But those seagulls are still out of rach
I went to the radio interview, but i ended up alone at the microphone

Get outta town, i think i'll get outta town
Get outta town, i think i'll get outta town
I head for the stick [mumble mumble mumble]
I follow a road i don't know where it goes
Get outta town, i think i'll get outta town

Cos the world is turning, i hope it don't turn away

Once i thought i saw you in a crowded, hazy bar,
Dancing on the light from star to star
Far across the moon beams, i know that's who you are.
I saw your brown eyes turning once to fire.

You are like a hurricane: there's calm in your eye.
And i'm getting blown away.
There's somewhere safer where the feelings stay.
I wanna love you but i'm getting blown away.

I am just a dreamer, but you are just a dream,
And you could have been anyone to me.
Before that moment you touched my lips,
That perfect feeling when time just slips
Away between us and our foggy trips.

You are like a hurricane: there's calm in your eye.
And i'm getting blown away.
There's somewhere safer where the feelings stay.
I wanna love you but i'm getting blown away.

[here chris sings a verse frome "smokeonthewater" by deep purple:] we all came down to/from montreaux
The lake geneva shoreline
Some stupid with a flare-gun
Burnt the place to the ground

You are like a hurricane: there's calm in your eye.
And i'm getting blown away.
There's somewhere safer where the feelings stay.
I wanna love you but i'm getting blown away.
