Lyrics
[Verse 1]
One lifetime is long enough
Is long enough to wait
The rain, like silver in my ears
Had nothing on my plate
A bucket full of Babylon
A belly full of hate
Go to sleep, my one true love
And may our dreams be sweet
[Verse 2]
Then we'll be running
[Verse 3]
See it's face beneath the glass
It murmurs on the breeze
Like a long Black Cadillac
It passes 'neath the trees
What is it you're waiting for?
Sweet love is on its knees
Go to sleep, my one true love
And find your heart's release
[Verse 4]
Then we'll be running
Afraid of nothing
Yeah, we'll be running
[Verse 5]
Silence is gold
Here I am, I ain't afraid of nothing
(Be running) Silence is gold
Here I am
(Be running) Silence is gold
Take my hand, I ain't afraid of nothing
Silence is gold
And here I am, here I am
[Verse 6]
The sun above the cotton grass
Is sinking down like lead
The seagulls know the truth of it
And scream it overhead
Hold on to Saint Christopher
The sky is murderous red
Go to sleep, my one true love
Our glory lies ahead
[Verse 7]
Then we'll be running
Afraid of nothing
Yeah, we'll be running
[Verse 8]
Be running
[Verse 9]
(Be running) All wired up in a dawning ray
(Be running) All wired up in a dawning ray
(Be running) All wired up in a dawning ray
(Be running) All wired up in a dawning ray
[Verse 10]
All wired up in a dawning ray
