Last night lyrics

Last night I was walking through the harbour

Where the fishing boats are lying on the shore

The news had travelled fast and everyone went to be

Where the mayor was making a speech

And the crowd started cheering

When he talked about the glory of it all

And the boys coming home from the war

Last night, they were dancing in the streets

And making music in the alleyways and bars

From a house down in the old town came the sound of guitars

Margarita was waiting inside

With her long black hair hanging down beneath the red light

And she smiled, for the boys coming home from the war

The boys coming home from the war

And they said we were heroes

they said we were fine

We were kings in command

we had God on our side

And we said "nothing will make us change in any way

Since yesterday - we're just the same

Since yesterday - nothing has changed

Since yesterday - we're just the same,"

But I can feel there's a new kind of hunger inside

To be satisfied

I saw it there last night

Last night I was walking through the shadows

Far away from all the music and the girls

When I saw a soldier waiting with a woman in black

And they stood without any word

Just staring at a photograph of someone, and she began to cry

For a boy left behind in the war

Some boy left behind in the war

And they said we were heroes

they said we were fine

We were kings in command,

we had God on our side

And we said "nothing will make us change in any way

Since yesterday - we're just the same

Since yesterday - nothing has changed

Since yesterday - we're just the same,"

But I can feel there's this new kind of hunger inside,

To be satisfied, I saw it there last night...
