Cold Island

from COLD ISLAND by Tom Woodward

lyrics

Watch the streetlights change
See the strangers walk
Hear the sounds of the Early Bird
where the neon patrons talk
See a smiling face
See a callous stare
See the colours of the dying sun
Which the hotel windows share

Hear the mating call
Of the one man band
Singing songs to the dancing drunks
Who will never understand
Heartbroken prince
How he fell from grace
Reciting hymns in the frosted light
But he cannot find his face

Hear the footsteps fall
Distant thoughts collide
There's nothing there but we want it still
And there is no reason why
Feel the winter's edge
In your naked bones
Beneath the bridges where the shadows live
Because they like to live alone
