In the shining sun
|
My images they run
|
Confusing all I've done before I've begun
|
And every city scene
|
Becomes a roaring stream
|
A nightmare and a dream rolled into one
|
|
But when the city sleeps
|
I'm up and on my feet
|
Along the darkened streets
|
Hear me run
|
|
Through the empty town
|
Running, laughing, down
|
No-one else around - to bother old me
|
By factories I sway
|
My shadows seem to play
|
To do this in the day - I'd never be free
|
|
But when the city sleeps....
|
