Dawn Chorus Songtext

I'm a lonely man walking lonely streetsI'm soaked to the skin with the pain of my uneaseFrom such a strained existenceThe tension in this world keeps me from sleepI'm hungry and coldThere's a weight hanging over my shouldersA rain black cloud of doubtHave I got enough loveHave I got enough hope?Enough strength to face the world each day?I know there's an answer somewhere in this nightI see her each time I look in your eyesI'm walking in a wild placeI am banging on the gatesOn the other side of the tracks babeHoping that someone's gonna hear me prayOh there's a dawn chorus breaking out all over the townWill you say you want me,Will I say I want you?Will you say you love meWhen I'm stripped and forced to stand up nakedAnd will I still love youThe goal that I want can't exist without fireAnd you fire the thoughts that realise all my dreamsThese are a grown man's tearsI lost all faith, I lost all hopeI started drinking, life became a jokeSomething would keep me going.I didn't know what it wasBut I saw it each time I looked in your eyesI'm walking in a wild placeI am banging on the gatesOn the other side of the tracks babeHoping that someone's gonna hear me prayOh there's a dawn chorus breaking out all over the townOh my godWhy do I feel the doubtYou give me something I can't live withoutYet from somewhere there comes an emptinessA feeling that I can't suppressIs this the start of the beginning or the point of no return?There's an answer thereWhen I look in your eyesI'm walking in a wild placeI am banging on the gatesOn the other side of the tracks babeWhere all my doubts are now laid away away away awayI'm walking in a wild placeI am banging on the gatesOn the other side of the tracks babeWhere someone answered my prayersOh there's a dawn chorus breaking out all over the town(That's too sad)
