Mercy Street - Peter Gabriel

[Ell.a]

Looking down on empty streets, all she can seeAre the dreams all made solidAre the dreams made realAll of the buildings, all of those carsWere once just a dreamIn somebody´s headShe pictures the broken glass, she pictures the steamShe pictures a soul with no leak at the seamLet´s take the boat out, wait until darknessLet´s take the boat out, wait until darkness comesNowhere in the corridors of pale green and greyNowhere in the suburbs in the cold light of dayThere in the midst of it so alive and aloneWords support like boneDreaming of mercy street, wear your insede outDreaming of mercy in your daddy´s arms againDreaming of mercy street swear they moved that signDreaming of mercy in your daddy´s armsPulling out the papers from drawers that slide smoothTugging at the darkness, word upon wordConfessing all the secret things in the warm velvet boxTo the priest - he´s the doctor, he can handle the shocksDreaming of teh tenderness - the tremble in the hipsOf kissing Mary´s lipsDreaming of mercy street, wear your inside outDreaming of mercy in your daddy´s arms againDreaming of mercy street, swear they moved that signLooking for mercy in your daddy´s armsMercy,mercy, looking for mercyMercy,mercy,looking for mercyAnne, with her father is out in the boatRiding the water, riding the waves on the seaLyrics by Peter Gabriel---> Homepage
