THESE DAYS

 

Yashimbawula !

(the watchman’s fire is burning)

 

What happened to the diamonds in your eyes

What happened to the hunger for the days chase?

What happened to the electric smile

that danced your life across your face?

We used to talk about changing the world

Now all you want to do is change your name

Come on baby don’t surrender now

to the empty hear of these days.

We used to talk so deep into the night

You had the heard of a wild horse running

You bared your soul to me

and we both knew these days were coming

 

CHORUS:

These days - blood in the heaven

These days - fire and ice

These days - burning streets and visions

These days - of the loveless child

 

Yashimbawula  !

 

You are the reason I came here

You will always be the one I’m looking for

I can’t stand to see the way

these days are pushing you up against the wall

Got to get up, got to move out

Face the tide beyond the door

Outside there’s a whole world changing

We can’t stand here, trapped inside

Let’s step out and test the weather

Hang on baby, it’s going to be a rough ride thru’

 

CHORUS:

These days - searching for a vision

These days - gun metal blue

These days - changing my religion

These days - heartless and cruel

 

say the words and fill my sails

I will love you through the coming gale

we’ll get through the darkest heart of these days

 

“It’s killing time”

Who will watch the watchers?

Who will keep the keepers?

Who will love the lovers - could you?

 

CHORUS
