Mark Knopfler - Metroland lyrics

[Mark Knopfler - Metroland lyrics]

Yearning, we were yearning
Greenlight blinding on the rail
Burning, we were burning
And the line unwinding to the Holy Grail
To the future gleaming on a blue horizon
And a golden girl, on golden sand
Dreaming, fantasizing
In another world from Metroland

I've danced in rain, and I've been Django
And I've got laid, I've been a rolling stone
I've been Verlaine, and I've been Rimbaud
Not afraid to walk alone
And now I take my midnight ramble
Do I fold or play what's in my hand
What's at stake and what's the gamble
Do I stay in Metroland

Dreams, yesterday's laughter
Ghosts and lovers come back to play
But dreams have a morning after


And run for cover in the light of day
I got something real, worth holding on to
I can belong to and understand
I've made my deal, I will go on to
Make my peace with Metroland, with Metroland

Metroland, Metroland in Metroland
