On a [bad word] boat I weave my way
Through the lanes that I used to lay
When all the nights that came before are finally over
I'm talking on the corner

But I know, this street has a dream of its own
All the road that I've travelled are the years from my past

And your eyes they lie, they lie about what they've been told
Until they shine, they shine, they shine like silver and gold
And there's no use for your body and no use for your soul

Save me a place wrapped in blankets next to you
And I'll sleep for as long as the night allows me to
Man's eternal grace is greater than the grave
And the sadness that lines your face clings hard to the traditions
Of your lies

They lie, they lie about what you've been told
Until your eyes they shine, they shine like silver and gold
And there's no use for your body and no use for your soul

No journey is over for you and I
As the eagles they circle above us in the sky
I've no use for the fireplace, the wind's blown me dry
This cold night's given me the space
To hear your voices echo all its lies

They lie, they lie about what they're been told
Until your eyes they shine, they shine like silver and gold
Your heart turns silver, your hands burn cold

If the sea burns silver, the fields burn cold
As a heart turns to silver, the hands turn to gold
The hands turn to gold
