A Dangerous Age
(专辑: North And South - 1988)
Night was falling, the
horizon was calling, as we drove into the
setting sun Going back to that country that we still call home Said good bye to the
capital city, yeah this town has got me on the
run I
need to spend some time out in the
great unknown. I'm looking for sweet inspiration, every morning noon and night But these days it just keeps on passing me by, I
know you don't feel like making this journey, but you know that time is on my side I
can't go on living like a
refugee Way down south where the
living is easy, we can look across the
great divide But all we've got is a
pocketful of memories. We stood on the
motorway shoulder as the
sun rose over the
lowland hills And my heart broke down, when I
looked at you Don't tell me you're leaving me now, when you know how hard I've been trying Darling you're my world, don't bring it all tumbling down It's only the
code of the
road, and the
sound of a
motor wheel crying Don't renege my love, don't bring it all tumbling down. One more morning, yes another day dawning, and I'm looking at a
bird that sings Wish I
could change my whole life, and just fly away Over the
mountains down through the
valleys, through the
homeland of the
Celtic kings Now it's just the
frontline for the
U.S.A.. We live in a
time when the
spirit of love and devotion is breaking down And my heart broke down when I
looked at you Don't tell me you're leaving me now, when you know how hard I've been trying Darling you're my world, don't bring it all tumbling down It's only the
code of the
road, and the
sound of a
motor wheel crying Don't renege my love, don't bring it all tumbling down.
