Empty Highway
Watch the rain gently fallLike the tears running down my faceWatch the rain gently fallLike the tears running down my faceSometimes, it feels like the sky is violentSometimes, it feels like nobody carsSometimes, it feels like I'm on an empty highwayAnd I'm on a road to nowhereYeah, I'm on a road to nowhereAs I watch the street light flickerLike the dying embers of your affectionAs I watch the street light flickerLike the dying embers of your affectionSometimes, it feels like we never kissedI've got no wind dressed in the Push-and-pull of the tidesWho cares if the world stops spinning?'Cause I'm a lonely numberYeah, I'm a lonely numberAs I lay me down to sleepAll the birds and the beesSongtexteThat would sing to all the loversThat just pass me by (yeah, yeah, yeah)Even in my dreamsVivid colours turn to a grey scaleEven in my dreamsVivid colours turn to a grey scaleAnd I turn to you and I askHow can I make things better?And you say, it's gone, it's gone, it's gone, it's overAnd I stand outside in just my underwear and I watch the gentle rain fallWatch the gentle rain fallin' down, yeahWatch the gentle rain fall down Aus Songtexte Mania
