Long Gone (Live in St. Louis 1982)

歌詞

Skulking in the mean streets whispering in the halls Redlight bandits on the corner give no quarter calls Infectious garbage fills the streets and in their eyes you know A thin blue line bends and breaks stop the overflow Fan the flames of the city's heat In dark corners that you never seen Desperation when the trouble flares Alarm guns ring, running scared And you're long gone, down in this hell Long gone down in this hell So baby won't you hold me tight Let your softness fill my night We've got a dream don't let it slip away In your eyes I can see the fear This town never sheds a tear We're gonna be out someday People looking for a holy one Some kind of hero or a prophet to come Visionaries dance the night away There's no tomorrow living for today But you're long gone down, in this hell Long gone down in this hell I saw the stars come out tonight so lonely and immune Summer rain kissed the streets that bleed like open wounds Patrol cars sweep the avenues down on forty eighth While faces in dark doorways wait to arouse the hate Fan the flames of the city's heat In dark corners that you never seen Desperation when the trouble flares Well I'm gonna scream, running scared And you're long gone, down in this hell Long gone down in this hell So baby won't you hold me tight Let your softness fill my night We've got a dream don't let it slip away In your eyes I can see the fear This town never sheds a tear We're gonna be walking away Baby better walk away Baby better walk away We'll be busting out someday
