Still Songtext

Still, the night is black there's Not a star that's worth its shine Still, I'm leaning back here Eating rhythm, sucking time To my heart beating out sweet tattoos On the thin skin of my soul On the near side of the blues Still, I pound the dents out Of all the dreams that crash tonight Still, I might make sense out Of what went wrong, what didn't go right And I might get the reason why the sun should rise so Fast on those who wait to have some Star fall in their eyes Still I wave my hammer To those who wait, who come, who go Still I might not stammer On words of love if I speak low And now the dawn is filling up with birds so high and Black the sun can't shine its way Across the feathered sky
