作词 : Henry | |
Lincoln Street is howling | |
It's empty, growing colder, | |
The night has come on limping and | |
It's bleeding from the shoulder. | |
Headlights fake a prison break | |
Of snow that rages and dies, | |
It's lost its will upon this hill | |
As one time so did I. | |
But here comes everybody- | |
The rounders and the nuns, | |
The poets sweeping sleeper cars, | |
The butcher and his sons; | |
Here comes the restitution | |
We'd all but given up, | |
This evening we're content believing | |
That love will be enough. | |
Air is what I need | |
But I try to breathe you in, | |
Thinking I can get at what I must | |
Beneath your skin. | |
Your veins are humming wire | |
Rushing fire to your face, | |
I feel it flush against my own, | |
A pulse that I can taste. | |
And here comes everybody- | |
The tyrant and his crew, | |
His most loyal traitors | |
And they whisper this to you: | |
Here comes the restitution | |
You'd all but given up, | |
This evening we're content believing | |
That love will be enough. | |
The fire escape is folded | |
Like the cradle of an arm, | |
Our dread so deep we've learned to keep it | |
Near without alarm. | |
But every fear is like the prayer | |
You've learned to shout out loud, | |
From your lips to God's ear | |
It turns the face of every crowd. | |
And here comes everybody- | |
The closet renegades, | |
The weary, hungry soldiers | |
From the children's lost crusade. | |
Here comes the restitution | |
We'd all but given up, | |
This evening we’re content believing | |
That love will be enough. |
