Scanning These Crowds
(专辑: Dart To The Heart - 1994)
I
was half asleep in the
washroom when they came in Eyes like moonlight on barbed wire and veins showing under the
skin The
uniforms made me nervous, I
got ready for the
chase But they left me scanning these crowds for some sign of your face Something fell on Saskatchewan in 1885 Where is it now that we need it, in this century of jive? The
axe falls as if through water, never leaves a
trace And I'm scanning these crowds for some sign of your face The
world shot down love as a
spy, once upon a
time ago Now people stand around here, like crows in the
snow Like the
shadow of the
rope on Louis Riel, they look so clean out of place And I'm scanning these crowds for some sign of your face Though storms may still kiss the
grasslands with primal fire In the
land of passive revolution, everything's for hire Are they demons, are they lemmings, or just the
humans in this place? Lord, I'm scanning these crowds for some sign of your face
