lyrics

BROKEN WINDOWS AND PAINTED DOORS
DRYING IN THE COOL OF THE EVENING
THE TURNING OF THE BLADES ON THE FAN ON THE CEILING BLOWIN’ IN OUR EYES

CLOCK TICKIN’ IN THE HALLWAY
SAME RYTHMN AS YOUR HEARTBEAT
AFTER SO MANY YEARS IT STILL MAKES IT LOOK EASY TURNIN’ HANDS OF TIME PASSIN’ US BY

*THE WHEELS WILL ROLL
SPINNIN’ DOWN ALL THOSE WINDING ROADS
ALWAYS ON THE WAY TO SOMEWHERE ELSE

WHEN A DULL LIFE MEETS THE RAZOR’S EDGE
THINGS CAN CHANGE IN AN INSTANT
ALL WITHIN YOUR GRASP SUDDENLY SEEMS SO DISTANT FAR AND AWAY

TRY LIVIN’ IN THE MOMENT
WHAT HAS PAST IT DON’T MATTER
BETWEEN THEN AND NOW
I’LL TAKE THE LATTER
ANYDAY OF THE WEEK
SPENDING TIME AIN’T CHEAP

*DAYS- GO BY.
THE MORE YOU LIVE THE LESS YOU WONDER WHY -EVERYONE’S ALWAYS ON THEIR WAY TO SOMEWHERE ELSE

PLEASE DON’T GIVE UP
YOU’VE BEEN DOWN THAT ROAD ONCE BEFORE
IF YOU’VE HAD IT UP TO YOUR NECK
LIKE SO MANY OTHERS WHO’VE COME BEFORE
THAT’S WHAT KINDRED SPIRITS ARE FOR

ONCE YOU’VE BEEN OVER AND DOWN AND OUT
IT’S A FEELING THAT’S NOT EASILY SHAKEN
YOU CAN TRY ALL YOU WANT
BUT YOU’LL NEVER ESCAPES THEM
THEY’RE NEVER FAR BELOW

THE DEVIL’S LURKING IN THE DETAILS
LIKE A SECRET YOU PROMISED YOU WOULD NEVER TELL YOUR EYES’LL GIVE YOU AWAY YOUR CONVICTION’S A HARD SELL AND SOME OF US AIN’T BUYIN BUT NO ONE KNOCKS YOU FOR TRYIN’

YOU’VE BEEN WATCHIN’ THE WORLD THROUGH A BROKEN WINDOW
