Blind Eye

(album: Ghost Nation - 1989)

When success is on your mind
But true direction is missing
You know the Gods have lied but you're still smitten.
By the stars in your eyes
I can tell you know where you are
Smile sweetly and you'll be forgiven.
You're almost free almost free to come and go
Bed sitting room for ambitious prisoner.

Walk away, don't take no for an answer
Turn a blind eye to it all
Let sleeping dogs lie
Down in Queensway.

Like a bulldozer chasing butterflies
Down sad English streets you wander
Over sleeping bodies you step lightly.
All the snow on the ground
lets you pass by without a sound
One last look before you disappear.

Walk away, don't take no for an answer
Turn a blind eye to it all
Let sleeping dogs lie
Down in Queensway.
