Lamplight Songtext
it's dark & it's a long way down

she said as she lay her head

on the pillow



I took one step back
& I retired

to evening



& the movie made me feel as if I wasn't here at all

& I drove home & I wound up all the windows in my car

in the lamplight I breathe

but the dark is falling in the garden over everything



John I'm waiting for a morning filled with sunlight

when we can both drive away
shake the dust right off my shoes

with younger friends & skies of blue like yesterday

John I'm waiting for a morning filled with sunlight

when we can both drive away

laughing friends & silent rides

& all the lovers that we lost are found again



I've been out walking in the verges & the quiet

through all the traffic & the movement of the night

& the lamplight froze

stopping so suddenly

hearing the dim radio
