"Blood From A Stone" lyrics
"Blood From A Stone"
In the shadow of the hole, where my door used to be
You never give up, you want more out of me
Come on in, help yourself
Scratch around, look at these empty shelves
There's nothing else that I can see
Except a string of beads in some old potpourri
You rip flesh from the bone
You suck blood from a stone
I will consider a life of crime
So I can feed these kids of mine
And should I fall down, should I fail
I'll spend the rest of my days in some stinking jail
I won't know who left me to your side
Stripped of my dignity, low and dry
You rip flesh from the bone
You suck blood from a stone
Ooh, you left me nothing
Oh, I don't care
You rob me blind without a gun
How can you sleep after what you've done?
There's nothing but darkness deep in your soul
There's no reflection, it's dark and it's cold
You rip flesh from the bone
You suck blood from a stone
You rip flesh from the bone
You suck blood from a stone

Home in the city
Home isn't pretty
Ain't no home for me
Home in the darkness
Home on the highway
Home isn't my way
Home I'll never be
Burn out the day
Burn out the night

There she stood in the street
Smilin' from her head to her feet;
I said, "Hey, what is this?
Now maybe, baby,
Maybe she's in need of a kiss."

Dire Straits - "Down To The Waterline" Sweet surrender on the Quayside
You remember we used to run and hide
In the shadow of the cargoes
I take you one at a time
And we're counting all the numbers
Down to the waterline

Here we stand or here we fall

Don't hear the bell but you...
