The rusty stream of dawn completes The scenes where cars once crawled these streets A face against the moving sky Brings back an alien hope Just like they said to me Keep your heart inside your coat
Well there's muddy shoes outside your door Is anybody home I ask once more A silver-plated jet comes home But the map leads her astray Just like they said to me Find your heart and lose your way
A fire burns inside me The snow still falls in flakes The reins around a horse's throat Turn into a lake And people so familiar Their words are in my mind
A fire burns inside me Dancing cool and blind
Beside the wall the flowers grow And down the sticky stems I go Watching changing skies below Your arms so far away Just like they said to me Life is worth another stay
