 Well we sit in empty rooms and dream our lives awayWhile the spirits come and go without a soundAnd just like you and me, they're tryin' to find a way, find a way, find a way home.
There's a full moon in the sky, but that don't worry meI don't ever hang my soul out on the lineWhen the witchin' hour comes, I always fly away, fly away, fly away home.
There's a light in the city, that comes down from aboveLeavin' you as wise as a serpent, harmless as a doveDon't blow your tomorrows, don't throw away your loveYou've got to be as wise as a serpent, harmless as a dove.
Now you once asked me why we can't communicateBut it doesn't always pay to tell the truthIf I told you right now, you'd only run away, run away, run away homeSo we sit in empty rooms and dream our lives awayWhile the spirits come and go without a soundYeah just like you and me, they're tryin' to find a way, find a way, find a way home.
There's a light in the city, that comes down from aboveLeavin' you as wise as a serpent, harmless as a doveDon't blow your tomorrows, don't throw away your loveYou've got to be as wise as a serpent, harmless as a dove.
