Song Lyrics

Coming home from a month away
Empty cabinets and bed
Well, if there's love in this house again
Let the light shine through the windows and onto my head

Now I stay in the city
Walk the street, search for something
Oh, something calls and it?s leaving
I am dreaming of a girl, oh, she is not really there

And all I did see
The buildings they burn so bright
Yes, all I did see
The buildings they burn so bright

Feel sorry for everything
I'll watch the homeless woman sleep
Just like the dimes that I gave her
I am scattered and I will roll away

I dream of the other side
Coming home to see your mother
Best friends who mean all the world
But can't understand the ground that I walk on, and I walk on

And all I did see
The buildings they burn so bright
Yes, all I did see
The buildings they burn so bright

Oh, all I did see
The buildings they burn so bright
And all I did see
Is the buildings they burn so bright

Some cry for the tower, I'll cry for the other
Who wait here in a jail cell lonely like a sailor on the sea
Alone on the sea, alone on the sea
Oh, I am lonely like a sailor on the sea
Alone on the sea, alone on the sea

Well, I am lonely like a sailor alone on the sea
Alone on the sea, alone on the sea
Alone on the sea, alone on the sea
Alone on the sea, alone on the sea
Oh, I am lonely like a sailor

And all I did see
The buildings they burn so bright
Yes, all I did see
The buildings they burn so bright

Oh, all I did see
The buildings they burn so bright
And all I did see
Is buildings they burn so bright
