Artist - Barclay James Harvest ******************************** Song - Death Of A City ************************* Album - Turn of the Tide (1981) ********************************* ********************** VERSE 1 ******** I look down the street but there’s no one there In the cold in the dark in the night air I call out for life but my heart feels despair There’s no sign of a light in the cold dismal night ------------ VERSE 2 ******** The lights have all gone the clothes are all torn The people are gone but the victory’s won I call out for life but it’s after the day Now the people are gone just the city alone X2 ------------ CHORUS ******* Eyes look from the second floor Down to the street below Calm now the wind is slow See posters once on the wall Now washed away in the rain Peeling from buildings tall ------------ VERSE 3 ******** I’ll follow you friends to where life never ends Make our mistakes again as our life lines descend Time is like dust and the dust is like snow As it covers the ruins of the life that you know ------------ CHORUS ******* Trees once green now turned to stone Objects that look like ghosts All of them overgrown Mist all sight and mind is blurred Lie on your back and cry Words uttered never heard VERSE 4 ******** I look down the street but there’s no one there In the cold in the dark in the night air I call out for life but my heart feels despair There’s no sign of a light in the cold dismal night ------------ VERSE 5 ******** The lights have all gone the clothes are all torn The people are gone but the victory’s won I call out for life but it’s after the day Now the people are gone just the city alone ENJOY...........
