Capercaillie - The Boy Who lyrics
[Capercaillie - The Boy Who lyrics]
Consider waking here in the heart
Of all the troubles
Where blood runs like wine
In the rhythm of this city, man
He knows no pity just live and work and die
There's the boy who sells his dreams
To buy a little time he's the boy who sells
His pearl ragged dreams
In a land that breaks your heart
With it's bullets and it's guns
In a land that breaks
Your pearl ragged dreams
Oh, these they are my people
And this is all I know
The longer this goes on, my friend
The stronger I will grow
Oh, these they are my people
And this is all I know
The longer this goes on, my friend
The stronger I will grow
Raven circles high in a tapestry of blue
Swirling 'round and 'round
Its eyes glint like diamonds as
If it knows the reasons
Of something I should know
And I would sell my dreams just
To buy a little time
Searching for the refuge of unknown
'Cause this place would hold you down
Like a fever in your veins
And you would sell your pearl ragged dreams
Oh, these they are my people
And this is all I know
The longer this goes on, my friend
The stronger I will grow
Oh, these they are my people
And this is all I know
The longer this goes on, my friend
The stronger I will grow
Of all the troubles
Where blood runs like wine
In the rhythm of this city, man
He knows no pity just live and work and die
There's the boy who sells his dreams
To buy a little time he's the boy who sells
His pearl ragged dreams
In a land that breaks your heart
With it's bullets and it's guns
In a land that breaks
Your pearl ragged dreams
Oh, these they are my people
And this is all I know
The longer this goes on, my friend
The stronger I will grow
Oh, these they are my people
And this is all I know
The longer this goes on, my friend
The stronger I will grow
Raven circles high in a tapestry of blue
Swirling 'round and 'round
Its eyes glint like diamonds as
If it knows the reasons
Of something I should know
And I would sell my dreams just
To buy a little time
Searching for the refuge of unknown
'Cause this place would hold you down
Like a fever in your veins
And you would sell your pearl ragged dreams
Oh, these they are my people
And this is all I know
The longer this goes on, my friend
The stronger I will grow
Oh, these they are my people
And this is all I know
The longer this goes on, my friend
The stronger I will grow
