It's time to wake up, the dream disappears
The dream where you laughed, you can't remember more
You can hear a woman asking behind the wall:
"Which one of us wants this life?"
The sound of a leaving train from the station
Fourteen streetlights beside the pavement
In the staircase a boy clings to his mother's tails
"Is daddy in the heaven, like they said?"
You've got the light in you, you've got the night
You've got a tough heart that beats
sparks to the wind without getting tired
to light the dark road.
Upstairs apartment has been empty for a long time
the letters pile in the dusty dim.
The children's screams rise from the yard
The panting earth is harbouring a storm.
You've got the light in you, you've got the night
You've got a tough heart that beats
sparks to the wind without getting tired
to light the dark road.
The rain came over the bus stop as a flood
You are a miracle, you are big after all
You've got the air and ability to breath
you've got a dove on your shoulder
even if you can't see it.
You've got the light in you, you've got the night
You've got a tough heart that beats
sparks to the wind without getting tired
to light the dark road.
You've got the light in you, you've got the night
You've got a tough heart that beats
sparks to the wind without getting tired
to light the dark road.
You've got the light in you, you've got the night
You've got a tough heart that beats
sparks to the wind without getting tired
to light the dark road.
