Awaken

Last Days Of The Century

Awaken


When the cock crows 
And the wind blows 
And the primerose of dawn 
Is at your window 
Moving through the deep 
You chase dreams accross your sleep 
Scarecrows 
Waiting at your door 
In the last days of the century 
Leaning from your balcony 
You said:This is how it's meant to be 
Can't you feel it in the air? 
See that light come shining down 
All the way to Chinatown 
See it shine from miles around 
Reflecting everywhere 
You whore black clothes 
You quoted Shakespeare 
You know I still get the shake 
When you are this near 
You look like a still 
>From a Cecil B. Demille 
When I saw you 
Waiting at my door 
In the last days of the century 
Leaning from your balcony 
You said:Changes come so rapidly 
Now I feel it in the air 
See that light come shining down 
All the way to Chinatown 
See it shine from miles around 
Reflecting everywhere
