Cover Up
There's lights that line these hallsThat beckon us to stayA glimmer in the distanceThat gathers all the strayAnd when I need it mostIt breaks into a songThat runs through all my veinsAnd helps me to hold on
It was a long nightWe ran along into the spotlightYou sang a song that made the children cryAnd all the people knew my nameIt was a bright lightThese lands combine into a great big massWe sang along to the very lastOh, the jury stole my fameAnd then we grabbed the sunAnd it shined into these eyesBelieve me
Cover up, rain downWe wept on the edge of this townIt's all I want it's all we want tonightI feel itCover up, rain downWe wept on the edge of this townIt's all I want it's all we want tonight
Oh, you look so aliveDid you think that we'd cry tonight?Oh, did you think we'd cry?Oh, can you feel my heart?I think I feel it, tooDid you think that we'd die tonight?Oh, did you think we'd die?
And then we grabbed the sunAnd it shined into these eyesBelieve me
Cover up, rain downWe wept on the edge of this townIt's all I want it's all we want tonightI feel itCover up, rain downWe wept on the edge of this townIt's all I want it's all we want tonight
Take my love, take it to the valley where the golden doveFlies it to the places where the silence screamsFills it with the noises of our cluttered dreams
Cover up, rain downWe wept on the edge of this townIt's all I want it's all we want tonightI feel itCover up, rain downWe wept on the edge of this townIt's all I want it's all we want tonight
