"Sparrow In The Storm" lyrics
"Sparrow In The Storm"
In the beginning lives the end
Can the foe become your friend?
Easy answers there are none, though
Frightened grown ups search for one
In these broken bloody times
We need more than TV smiles
Behind the eyes the door is tight shut
Behind the makeup, just more makeup
When the pain is such, feelings turn to dust
Are there tears enough to wash all of us?
I'm a sparrow in the storm
Without your love to keep me warm
Seasons come and seasons go
That you love me is all I need to know
I'm a sparrow in the storm
Without your love to keep me warm
Hold my hand and time will show
That you love me is all I need to know
The message written on our walls
For the strong to climb : the weak must fall
This is heresy I guess, but could the strong
Perhaps learn to live with less
When the pain is such, feelings turn to dust
Are there tears enough to wash all of us?
When I need a friend, here you are again
You let me comfort you like only lovers do
I'm a sparrow in the storm
Without your love to keep me warm
Seasons come and seasons go
That you love me is all I need to know
As the birthdays come and go
The more I understand, the less I know
As the birthdays come and go
Only one thing I know
I'm a sparrow in the storm
Without your love to keep me warm
Seasons come and seasons go
That you love me is all I need to know
I'm a sparrow in the storm
Without your love to keep me warm
Hold my hand and time will show
That you love me is all I need to know

10cc - "Dreadlock Holiday" I was walkin' down the street
Concentratin' on truckin' right

Boz Scaggs - "I'll Be Long Gone" I'll be long gone
By the time you make up your mind
Gotta make my own way
Around the kinda misery I find

The Kinks - "Waterloo Sunset" Dirty old river, must you keep rolling
Flowing into the night?
People so busy, make me feel dizzy
Taxi light shines so bright
But I don't need no friends
As long as I gaze on Waterloo sunset
I am in...
Fred Neil - "Everybody's Talkin'" Everybody's talkin' at me
I don't hear a word they're sayin'
Only the echoes of my mind
People stoppin', starin'
I can't see the faces
Only the shadows of their eyes
I'm goin' where the sun keeps...
Melanie - "People In The Front Row" I was outta love
And out of heart
I couldn't quite stop
Something that I didn't start
Yeah yeah, the critics said no
I didn't know how
It came, so I couldn't go
Oh oh how...
I was read on the bill...
