A letter come blowing in On an ill wind Something about me and you Never seeing one another again And what I knew had come
Stars struck deaf and dumb Like when we kissed That taste of blood on your tongue
[x2] Don´t worry, darling No baby, don´t you fret We´re living in the future And none of this has happened yet
Woke up election day Sky´s gunpowder and shades of grey Beneath the dirty sun I whistle my time away Then just about sun down You come walking through town Your boot heels clicking like The barrel of a pistol spinning round
[x2]
The earth it gave away The sea rose towards the sun I opened up my heart to you It got all damaged and undone My ship Liberty sailed away On a bloody red horizon The groundskeeper opened the gates And let the wild dogs run
Alone I limp through town A lost cowboy at sundown Got my monkey on a leash Got my ear tuned to the ground My faith´s been torn asunder Tell me is that rolling thunder
Or just the sinking sound Of something righteous going under
Don´t worry, darling No baby, don´t you fret We´re living in the future And none of this has happened yet Don´t worry, darling No baby, don´t you fret We´re living in the future And none of this has happened yet None of this has happened yet[x4]
