We're stranded at the lights With extraordinary distance Covered in a blanket Of northern snow I am your protection The last line of defense I'll try to keep my promises To all of our friends
I don't have a coat And we don't have a car But honey if you're patient
Oh the overpass in Harlem shines like Neon violence in my blood So red and white, and out of our control
You swore it on your life You wouldn't get so tired But I can hear you lying Over the phone This as such is failure Wholly on my part To rectify our balance with The credit on the cards
But I don't have the nerve But if you have the heart Honey if you're patient
Oh the overpass in Harlem shines like Neon violence in my blood So red and white, and out of our control Do they drown their young in Hudson waters? Bring their children with disorders Into the night and the dark northern cold

I don't have a coat And we don't have a car But honey if you're patient The city isn't far
Oh the overpass in Harlem shines Like neon violence in my blood So red and white, and out of our control Do they drown their young in Hudson waters? Bring their children with disorders Into the night and the dark northern cold
And it shakes and rattles through the ward A lightning bolt across the door Fluorescent like the visions in my sleep So much braver than our present life A golden factory of light And you'll live long enough to catch its beamsTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
