A City Somewhere
I used to be a fisherman Until they took away my sea I used to be a lover once Until she went away from me
Now I only sail my sea in dreams I'm kissing ghosts, it seems The comfort of oblivion Is where you'll find me most
The rushing fields, the rushing waves The simply joy of touch Now hoping for another one A reason to exist
A fleeting glance, a skyward slide In unison we dance Towards all the dreams of breathless joy That leave you in a trance
In a city of ten million I can't find a single soul No one to numb the loneliness That tears a mortal hole
If I can make it through tonight I know I'll be okay And so I hang on through the hours Till the breaking of the day
I used to see in colour Now I only see in grey I used to have a purpose once Until she went away
Maybe there's another touch Another smile that saves Maybe I'll find a sea Maybe I'll sail again
I used to believe in everything Till they burned away the sky I believed in all the golden dreams they sold Until they bled me dry
I loved the taste of innocence Till they salted all the earth The sweetness of a simple truth 更多更详尽歌词 在 ※ Mojim.com 魔镜歌词网 Is now a saccharin joke
And I used to be the happy one I used to feed on hope Now I sit alone at night And argue with these ghosts
In a city of ten million I can't find a single soul No one to numb the loneliness That tears a mortal hole
If I can make it through tonight I know I'll be okay And so I hang on through the deadly hours Till the breaking of the day
And a million pretty buildings Can't cure a lonely soul And a million drinks and photographs Can't fill this empty hole
So I'm walking by the riverbank And I'm counting every bridge Trying to figure out what went wrong How did I reach this place
Strangers through the restaurant windows Holding each others hands And I'm watching now as they speak a life With a single loving glance
Spitting epithets at a wounded pride I swallow hard I turn the key to a silent room Where all has died inside
I'm sitting naked in the darkness Questioning my own skin As I shake and fight the urge to collapse And let the darkness win
In a city of ten million I can't find a single soul
