Lyrics
Coles Corner
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.
Hold back the night from us
Cherish the light for us
Don't let the shadows hold back the dawn
Cold city lights glowing
The traffic of life is flowing
Out over the rivers and on into dark
I'm going down town where there's music
I'm going where voices fill the air
Maybe there's someone waiting for me
With a smile and a flower in her hair
I'm going down town where there's people
The loneliness hangs in the air
With no-one there real waiting for me
No smile, no flower nowhere
Cold city
Hold back
Hold back the night
