[00:19.04] Stevie said now don't look round they're watching us
[00:22.98] Two girls in the corner of that dodgy club
[00:27.04] And the grey eyes, the storm
[00:29.04] That I've come to know and wish for
[00:31.60] Before I caught a breath, well,
[00:33.41] She was standing there.
[00:34.85]
[00:35.79] We walked the streets of our town just talking
[00:39.85] And the dawn broke grey
[00:41.41] And freezing through the deserted blocks
[00:44.16] Just when your life is stale
[00:46.35] And there's reason there for everything
[00:48.73] Something comes to kick you up inside
[00:51.73]
[00:52.98] Eleven sweet years and no nearer home
[00:57.29] A hundred thousands miles through this battle zone
[01:00.60]
[01:01.16] Still high on the wire above the hollow darkness
[01:05.41] Trying not to look down
[01:07.79]
[01:20.16] No Rest for the wicked is still how it goes
[01:22.79] Twisted up and turning in my bed alone
[01:26.98] And separation pains like a blunted amputation
[01:31.66] Pushing endless coins in the telephone
[01:35.99] Eleven sweet years and no nearer home
[01:40.18] A hundred thousands miles through this battle zone
[01:43.28]
[01:44.15] Still high on the wire above the hollow darkness
[01:48.45] Trying not to look down
[01:50.70]
[01:52.01] We try not to look down
[01:55.51]
[01:57.13] So rest in these open arms
[02:01.95] And lie until they come for you
[02:06.07] And tell me everything you've ever felt,
[02:12.26]
[02:13.76] Tell me everything you want to see . . .
[02:18.01]
[02:27.63] Forever running even when we are standing still
[02:32.32] Driven on and fired up as the whirlwinds blow
[02:36.20] And shouting out inside "I'm proud of you,
[02:39.50] I'm proud of you"
[02:40.38] Ten thousand footsteps echo down the Brixton Road
[02:45.01] Eleven sweet years and no nearer home
[02:49.39] A hundred thousands miles through this battle zone
[02:53.45] Still high on the wire above the hollow darkness
[02:57.65] Trying not to look down
[03:00.59]
[03:01.83] We try not to look down
[03:05.01]
[03:10.90] We try not to look down
[03:13.52]
[03:15.14] We try not to look down
