Bright Spark (See What I Mean)

(album: The Grand Theatre, Volume 2 - 2011)

It's a big old mess of brick and stone
Man can't live on love alone
Yeah I hear that's good 'cause it's all gone
Yeah there's nothing to do but carry on

Rain falls down on this dirty old town
Nothin's gonna get it clean
See what I mean

Takes stand in a topless bar
Weathered old man on a wet guitar
We all do the thousand-yard stare
Shuffling around and going nowhere

Crowds roll in and they do it again
Nothin's gonna break this routine
See what I mean

Here she comes, my girl
A bright spark in a dark world
Here she comes, my girl
Bright spark in a dark world

There's a big old mess of brick and stone
Wasn't that mad when it was all my own
She showed up and it's okay
Now I don't mind that the sky is grey

Rain falls down on this dirty old town
She's the only shine I've seen
See what I mean
See what I mean

Here she comes, my girl
Bright spark in a dark world
Here she comes, my girl
Bright spark in a dark world

See what I mean
See what I mean
