Last Days Of The Century |
When the cock crows |
And the wind blows |
And the primrose of dawn |
Is at your windows |
Moving through the deep |
You chase dreams across your sleep |
Scarecrows, waiting at your door |
In the last days of the century |
Leaning from your balcony |
You said this is how its meant to be |
Can’t you feel it in the air |
See that light come shining down |
All the way to Chinatown |
See it come from miles around |
Reflecting everywhere |
You wore black clothes |
You quoted Shakespeare |
You still make me shake |
When you get this near |
You look like a still from Cecil B. DeMille |
When I saw you waiting at my door |
In the last days of the century |
Leaning from y our balcony |
You say changes come so rapidly |
You can feel them in the air |
Whoever you pretend to be |
You must face yourself eventually |
In the last days of the century |
Who knows who we were |
In the last days of the century |
Leaning from your balcony |
You said this is how it’s meant to be |
Can’t you feel it in the air |
See that light come shining down |
All the way to Chinatown |
See it shine from miles around |
Reflecting everywere |
