"Before They Crash The Universe" lyrics
"Before They Crash The Universe"
They came to my town
They came with attitudes on fire
They put their arms down
This was the gun for hire
Lost in this moment
Lost in this unfamiliar place
I counted no men
I couldn't find a face
This is the time, this is the day
We switch off the dead night
This is the time, this is the day
We switch on the white light
Before they crash the universe
Hung-up and dried out
Left in this elemental state
Shook up and cried out
This is an awful fate
And in that moment
There in that hard, torrential rain
We cried for no man
Inspired to live again
This is the time, this is the day
We switch off the dead night
This is the time, this is the day
We switch on the white light
Before they crash the universe
They came to this town
They came to tax our dreams away
And on the way down
We pushed their jab away
We held this moment
Suspended in this perfect state
We cried for no man
We carved in stone the date
This is the time, this is the day
We switch off the dead night
This is the time, this is the day
We switch on the white light
Before they crash the universe, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh

Wishbone Ash - "Blowin' Free" I thought I had a girl
I know, because I seen her.
Her hair was golden brown
Blowin' free like a cornfield.
She was far away
I found it hard to reach her.
She told me "You can try"
But it's...
Free - "Wishing Well" Take off your hat
Kick off your shoes,
I know you ain't going anywhere.
Run 'round the town
Singing your blues

You have always been

But you're...
10cc - "I'm Mandy Fly Me" Just like a rollin' stone
I'm outside lookin' in
But if your chance came would you take it
Where on earth do I begin

It's never struck a chord...
Bryan Ferry - "This Is Tomorrow" Here in the hush of evenin' on a night in June
Overhearin' conversations bayin' at the moon
Suddenly a voice I'm hearin's sweet to my ear
This is tomorrow's callin', wishin' you were here
