Broadway traffic streaming light She came from California Running from daylight into this endless electric twilight And when she dies a ghost is born Singing "Get up, get up, get up Get up out of your memories Get out of the sunlight Get out of that sleeping western town"
Got a little bit of running for you now Got a little way to run
To answer all our hopes and fears A king is leaving Union Square Did we leave the light on? (Did we leave the light on?) Does he need a light on? (Does he need a light on?) The king is screaming highway songs Of blood and lies Of hope and wrong Did he leave a light on? (Did he leave a light on?) Does he need a light on?
Yesterday when we get older We'll look back on all the times He had you putting a face on Instead of just walking away So paint your face black and blue again Wake up, wake up, wake up Wake up new and Put on the clothes that make you feel like you're not broken
He put a little bit of color in your eye You got a little bit of color
To answer all our hopes and prayers An angel sang in Union Square Did she leave the light on? (Did she leave the light on?) Do we need a light on? The congregation came to stare To touch her dress To pull her hair They tore her clothes and left her there Did she need a light on? (Does she need a light on?) Do we need a light on? (Do we need a light on?) Do we need a light on? (Do we need a light on?) Do we need a light on?
These daydream nations won't come true The ghosts you made up ghosted you The angel learns to live with Things that make her feel uneasy And after all the dreaming's done She screams "Wake up, wake up, wake up This is a recording A ghost of England Awake in a dream of America"
You see him coming out the corner of your eye You can hear him breathing when he runs
The King of all our hopes and fears His train departing Union Square Just moved to somewhere South of here Did he leave a light on? (Did he leave a light on?) Her feathers stale with sex and beer The angel of the pavement cries "If God is dead, why am I here? Did he leave a light on For me? (Did he leave a light on?) Did he leave a light on For me? (Did he leave a light on?) Did he leave a light on For me? (Did he leave a light on?) Did he leave a light on For me?"Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
