I work my fingers to the bone. Just trying to keep up with the Jones. You call me on the telephone. Say baby hurry hurry home. . Pour me a little splash of red.

Another foggy night in hometown. Cruising the backstreet pubs with a friend or two. I guess we were laughing how we made it through the bad old days. When across the bar I caught a glimpse of you.
Beauty is what eyes behold. And you burn brighter than most. I chased you through the midnight streets. To be where I could speak freely. . I didn't care what tomorrow held.
And when you wanted me I came to you. And when you wanted someone else I withdrew. And when you asked for light I set myself on fire. And if I go far away I know you'll find another slave.
Oooooooooooh. Oooooooooooh. Oooooooooooh. Oooooooooooh. . Long days and nights you fought for truth. Gotta hand it to you. Uprise and paid for in blood.
When I first came to this island. That I called by my own name. I was happy in this fortress. In my exile I remained. . But the hours grew so empty. And the ocean sent her waves.
Someone falls to pieces, sleeping all alone. Someone kills the pain, spinning in the silence. To finally drift away. . Someone gets excited. In a chapel yard and catches a bouquet.
