Lyrics

Idle engines hum low and deep
Breathing heavy while the city sleeps
Soon I'll be homeward bound and welcomed by
the song of honking horns and birds on a telephone wire
I feel like a skeleton some days
It's colder than it looks out there in the heavy rain
The distant neon sea burns my eyes
And the vultures lick their lips in sync and harmonize
The crack of dawn feels bittersweet
Evoking late lamented dreams
Won't get to see much of the blinding sun
Twilight comes and we repeat the song
And as we keep the fires burning at midnight
I hope you won't get lost along the way
And as we keep the fires burning at midnight
I hope you won't get lost along the way
