Lyrics Life in the Dark - The Felice Brothers

Life in the Dark

I live my life in the dark
I’ve often tried
To push the curtain aside
But I don’t know how
I don’t know how
I bury my head when I cough
I’ve often thought
«Tonight we’re bound to be caught»
But I don’t know why
I don’t know why
I’d love to see you
Where the bluebirds grind their corn
I’d love to see you
In that old house where we were born
They’re burning the heretics again
It’s awfully bright
All the infamous night
Down in the street
Down in the square
I dream of a world without war
The lonely crowd
Singing together aloud
Verses of love
Verses of peace
I’d love to see you
Where the bluebirds grind their corn
I’d love to see you
In that old house where we were born
Sorrow seeps through the floor
It covers me
As waters cover the sea
But I don’t know why
It’s all in the blink of an eye
We laugh and we cry
We fall in love and we die
But we don’t know when
We don’t know why
I’d love to see you
When the angels blow their horn
I’d love to see you
In that old house where we were born
