Checkout Girls — текст песни (Deacon Blue and Ricky Ross)

Stay with me now
I feel like you`re slipping away
there`s a song in the air
that no-one is singing today
there are places to go
but somehow I feel we should stay

And the checkout girls sing a a song for the world
that goes round and round
and the anthem of the keys in the tills
makes a soothing sound
and the eyes and the ears aren`t on the sky~
they`re on the ground

Talk to me now
there are words in your mind worth saying
there`s a something happening over here
even though the actors might only be playing
life is the thing
that can`t be lost by delaying

Live with me now
I`m ready to hear your crying
risen again like the phoenix the ashes defying
in the silence we know
there`s something beyond the dying

And sometimes I`m ready to know
sometimes I`m willing to go
for someone its happening slow
didn`t you know
