Close Action - Big Country

Close Action Lyrics

A score of years this line has run
Above the crests that drown the sun
A mile high the turbines turned
The stokers sweat the monkeys burnedI will carry you home with the Gods in my eyes
I will carry you home while the westerlies sighI will carry you homeThe continents will fly apart
The oceans scream and never part
Divided souls can never rest
Must join the nations break the testI will carry you home with the Gods in my eyes
I will carry you home while the westerlies sigh
I will carry you home with the Gods in my eyes
I will carry you home while the westerlies sighI will carry you homeFor endless hours the sirens wail
Await the tide that brings the sail
Cling to the walls and close the shore
The lovers wait who walk no moreI will carry you home with the Gods in my eyes
I will carry you home while the westerlies sigh
I will carry you home with the Gods in my eyes
I will carry you home while the westerlies sighI will carry you home, I will carry you home
I will carry you home, I will carry you home
