Electric Air Songtext
Two versions of this lyric are known:
Version 1
First a stranger comes to town
Picks your face out of the crowd
Wraps around you like cold mist
Suddenly your days are his
He leaves you just his point of veiw
Now you kill time and time kills you
Sliding down the precipice
All your days are come to this
It's a never-ending show
Kiss your dreams and let them go
You're a rainbow wrapped in grey
You don't hear a word I say
Through the vast unfathomed deep
You chase dreams across your sleep
Mind of fire and feet of clay
You're a million miles away
Let's just say that I once knew
Someone who turned into you
I reach out, and somehow miss
All our days are come to this
Love betrayed by just a kiss...
All our days are come to this
-------------------------------------------------
2nd version
Sun goes down on the unknown
Lights come on in towers of stone
Muffled drums play out of sight
See the world anew tonight
The city breathes electric air
Human waves drift who knows where
Young girls shimmer in the light
See the world anew tonight
It's a never-ending show
Kiss your dreams and let them go
You can leave or join the game
Still the lure remains the same
Through the vast unfathomed deep
You chase dreams across your sleep
You're a rainbow wrapped in grey
You don't hear a word I say
Crowds spill out of the arcade
The restaurant pulls down the shade
Still the party lights shine bright
See the world anew tonight
Let tomorrow hold its bite
See the world anew... tonight
