| [00:34.25] |
One day I will be |
| [00:40.86] |
Back in our old street |
| [00:47.48] |
Safe from the noise that's |
| [00:54.19] |
Falling around me |
| [01:00.59] |
And we'll release this town from the people |
| [01:06.52] |
Who are trying to knock it down |
| [01:11.25] |
And then only city lights |
| [01:14.90] |
will brighten the night sky |
| [01:20.42] |
And there will be no sound |
| [01:27.60] |
Open the bars and |
| [01:33.91] |
Open the markets |
| [01:40.63] |
Open the banks and |
| [01:47.21] |
Open the churches |
| [01:53.42] |
And we'll release this town from the people |
| [01:59.64] |
Who are trying to knock it down |
| [02:04.15] |
And then only city lights |
| [02:07.75] |
will brighten the night sky |
| [02:12.46] |
And there will be no sound |
| [02:19.98] |
We've been cowering so long |
| [02:26.48] |
Oh what I would give |
| [02:33.35] |
I ask so little |
| [02:39.92] |
Oh what I would give |
| [02:46.64] |
To stand at the bus stop |
| [02:53.10] |
Or browse in a bookshop |
| [02:59.91] |
To sleep and always be still |
| [03:06.51] |
And we'll release this town from the people |
| [03:12.78] |
Who are trying to knock it down |
| [03:18.04] |
And then only city lights |
| [03:21.85] |
will brighten the night sky |
| [03:27.00] |
And i will be set free from the people |
| [03:33.35] |
Who are trying to bury me |
| [03:37.93] |
And then only fireworks |
| [03:41.77] |
will light the sky at night |
| [03:46.77] |
For all the world can see |
