Livin On A Memory — текст песни (Alannah Myles)

The street light crawls into a bare bulb hotel
Where dead eyes shine there`s a story to tell
It`s a life of crime on a bed of stone
When the devil calls you`re better off alone

Chorus:
And now I`m hiding from the light, running from my destiny
Haunted by a flame, lying low, livin` on a memory

The bugs still bite and the breezes blow
Between your dreams right through your clothes
The days roll by like cars on a train
And the August sky still looks like rain

chorus

Haunted by a dream, I can`t escape this reverie
Trying to break away, lying low, livin` on a memory

I`ll be walking behind you, I`m a face on the wind
I`ll be watchin`, still payin` for my sins

I`m drifting down the river so slow
As the lights of town are beginning to glow

chorus

Haunted by a dream, I can`t escape from this reverie
Trying to break away, lying low, livin` on a memory...
