Now we're in twin cities Where the Mississippi rises and then falls One is Minneapolis And the other no less famous is St. Paul's
There are stray dogs on the highway And the local farmers moan about lack of rain When the winds blew last winter I swear England had another hurricane, hurricane
And we are twin cities, and we are that river From the standing still, we will be delivered
Last time in New York was with Mandela And Madonna and The Mets They're icons of an era where That's about as famous as it gets (That's what I call famous, babe)
I've seen cities full of ticker tape And cotton trains through Utah, disappearing out of sight Now I'm standing in a city That's as pretty as an ocean in the night
And we are twin cities, and we are that ocean From the standing still, we are set in motion
And no one calls me up to say 'How long are you going to be away?'? (Are you ever coming back?) Yeah, yeah (Are you ever coming back?)
No one calls me up to say 'Don't let that life lead you astray'? (Don't forget to come back) Yeah (Don't forget to come back)
They were rioting in Detroit on the night The Pistons won it back to back I was out of there the next day And I only had just two bags to pack
And we are twin cities, and we are one river From the standing still, we will be delivered And we are twin cities, and we are one ocean From the standing still, we are set in motion
Yeah, we are twin cities We are one river (We are twin cities) One ocean
We are twin cities (We are twin cities) We are one river, yeah One ocean
We are twin cities, one ocean We are twin citiesTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
