Lyrics
ANOTHER BROKEN CIRCLE
v.1
blow out the candle
wave of the hand oh
she knows she's gotta go
another glance over the rainbow
real tears flow
and father preaches and
mother teaches and baby reaches and falls
islands that once were connected
drift apart when battle calls
emotional landslide..can't hide
something's left undone
posing side by side nobody facing anyone
hats off to the masters hats off to the moon
hats off to the stranger waiting in the other room.
see thru the window..where is there light?
how long can we stretch this darkness thru the night?
some have the fortune..some have the fun..
some have to beat another hole into the drum.
(chorus)
let us believe tonight. . and scrub away the rust
and let us receive tonight a healing that closes
another broken circle of love.
v.2
far gone love song..they stare in disbelief
no matter whose right and whose wrong
a fine line runs beneath
soldiers wear their metals and clowns wear their disguise
empty hands clutch street corner lamps
waiting for another sun to rise
hats off to the masters hats off to the moon
hats off to the stranger waiting in the other room.
some have the fortune some have the fun
some have to beat another hole into the drum
see thru the window..where is the light?
how long can we stretch this darkness thru the night?
(chorus)
let us believe tonight and scrub away the rust
and let us receive tonight a healing that closes
another broken circle of love.
