Straight To You
All the towers of ivory are crumblingAnd the swallows've sharpened their beaksThis is the time of our great undoingThis is the time that I'll come runningStraight to you, for I am capturedStraight to you, for I am captured one more time
The light in our window is fadingThe candle gutters on the ledgeWell, now sorrow it comes a stealingAnd I'll cry, girl, but I'll come runningStraight to you, for I am capturedStraight to you, for I am captured once again
And gone are the days of rainbowsAnd gone are the nights of swinging from the starsFor the sea will swallow up the mountainsAnd the sky will throw thunderbolts and sparksStraight at you, but I'll come runningStraight to you, but I'll come running one more time
Heaven has denied us its kingdomThe saints are drunk and howling at the moonAnd the chariots of angels are collidingWell, I'll run babe, I'll come runningStraight to you, for I am capturedStraight to you, for I am captured one more time
