Old man lyin´ By the side of the road With the lorries rollin´ by
Blue moon sinkin´ From the weight of the load And the buildings scrape the sky Cold wind rippin´ Down the valley at dawn And the morning paper flies Dead man lyin´ By the side of the road With the daylight in his eyes
*Don´t let it bring you down It´s only castles burning Find someone who´s turning And you will come around
Blind man runnin´ Through the light of the night With an answer in his hand
Come on down to the river of sight And you can really understand Red lights flashin´ Through the window in the rain Can you hear the sirens moan White cane lyin´ In a gutter in the lane And you´re walkin´ home alone
