The Broken Light
The broken light carries me home
On your dusty balcony I wait
The broken light falls like a drape
Over the city half-asleep
The broken light it carries me
Seeps through the tires & the trees
The tangled wires & the jasmine breeze
The broken light runs like a stream
Over your curtain dancing
Over the still life that hangs in your room
The distant car horns in the afternoon
Your unmade bed and the flickering TV
The broken light ...
The broken light knows everything
It knows all about defeat
It touches all that's happening
Disappearing through these dirty streets
Through the dust and the ash and
The crumbling concrete
The broken light...
On your dusty balcony I wait
The broken light falls like a drape
Over the city half-asleep
The broken light it carries me
Seeps through the tires & the trees
The tangled wires & the jasmine breeze
The broken light runs like a stream
Over your curtain dancing
Over the still life that hangs in your room
The distant car horns in the afternoon
Your unmade bed and the flickering TV
The broken light ...
The broken light knows everything
It knows all about defeat
It touches all that's happening
Disappearing through these dirty streets
Through the dust and the ash and
The crumbling concrete
The broken light...
