Lyrics

Marblehead Johnson

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Tonight I'm wound tighter than a watchspring

Tonight you owe my patience quite a debt

Tonight we're not gonna solve anything

I might say something that we both regret

Chorus:-

And now the pressures on, the heat is rising

The time has come to stop apologising

'cos when the skies are clear

The threat of rain is always here with you

Tonight the geese are flying

And everything you say is a call to arms

Tonight there's something in the air

Don't come too close and you'll come to no harm

(chorus)

And now the pressure's on the heat is rising

The time has come to stop apologising

With all thats gone before

My motive's never felt so pure

And now my heart's beset

With 28 carot gold regrets

And when the skies go clear

The threat of rain is always here with you
