Mercy Street (2012 - Remaster)

Looking down on empty streets, all she can see

Are the dreams all made solid

Are the dreams all made realAll of the buildings, all of those cars

Were once just a dream

In somebody's headShe pictures the broken glass, she pictures the steam

She pictures a soul

With no leak at the seamLet's take the boat out

Wait until darkness

Let's take the boat out

Wait until darkness comesNowhere in the corridors of pale green and grey

Nowhere in the suburbs

In the cold light of day

There in the midst of it so alive and alone

Words support like boneDreaming of Mercy Street

Wear your inside out

Looking for mercy

In your daddy's arms again

Dreaming of Mercy Street

'Swear they moved that sign

Looking for mercy

In your daddy's armsPulling out the papers from drawers that slide smooth

Tugging at the darkness, word upon word

Confessing all the secret things in the warm velvet box

To the priest, he's the doctor

He can handle the shocks

Dreaming of the tenderness, the tremble in the hips

Of kissing Mary's lipsDreaming of Mercy Street

Wear your inside out

Dreaming of mercy

In your daddy's arms again

Dreaming of Mercy Street

'Swear they moved that sign

Looking for mercy

In your daddy's armsLooking for mercy

Looking for mercy

Looking for mercy

Mercy, mercyAnne, with her father is out in the boat

Riding the water

Riding the waves on the sea
