Calling For You
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.
It's a hot summer night in the city,
The steam's rising up from the ground,
The nightclubbing crowd are all steppin' out
Like a serpentine line going round and around,
The girls paint their faces like neon,
Trying to stand out in the crowd,
They quiver in their desperation,
You can tell by the way they are talking too loud;
And this voice in my head keeps on saying
It's time - to find a way out of here,
And the answers come - strong and true;
CHORUS:
You're so fine - Philistines,
After all we're just animals,
Heaven knows - where love goes,
Disappears into the shadows,
If tonight - feels alright
You and me can kiss the night sky,
Fly away, we'll escape,
Far away from all this world of pain.
The scent of your quiet desperation,
You're having a panic attack,
The room's full of sweat and confusion,
And you know there is no turning back;
And this voice in my head keeps on saying
It's time - to find a way out of here,
And the answers come - strong and true;
CHORUS:
You're so fine - Philistines,
After all we're just animals,
Heaven knows - where love goes,
Disappears into the shadows,
If tonight - feels alright
You and me can kiss the night sky,
Fly away, we'll escape
Far away from all this world of pain.
