1. How Far Jerusalem

They are the victims of the night
Ride against the wind – born to lose the fight
They fill the doorways, they come far
Holding what they bring – details on a card
And on a rainy night like this
Someone shuts the door – goodbye on their lips

They are the victims of the night
Ride against the wind – born to lose the fight
They fill the doorways, they come far
Holding what they bring – details on a card
And on a rainy night like this
Someone shuts the door – goodbye on their lips

There is no charity from where they come
There's nothing left to be
In stark reality thy will be done
For you, for them, for me

How far jerusalem – before the heart breaks down
No kings among them – cold feet in london town
How far jerusalem – oh, broken hearted clown
We stand among them – cold feet in london town

They are in search of liberty's trail
Equal in their eyes – faces drawn and pale
So many hearts have gone before
Probably ignored – crashing to the floor
They are the victims of the night
Ride against the wind – born to lose the fight

There is no charity from where they come
There's nothing left to be
In stark reality thy will be done
For you, for them, for me

How far jerusalem – before the heart breaks down
No kings among them – cold feet in london town
How far jerusalem – oh, broken hearted clown
We stand among them – cold feet in london town

2. Just Like An Arrow

We talk endlessly don't get anywhere
Born in reality cradled in care
If you needed me or mistreated me
Won't you still be there

And those lonely nights when you find it hard
Losing your appetite breaking apart
If you needed me or mistreated me
Don't break my heart

It goes deep my love only for you
Just like an arrow
It goes deep my love only for you
Just like an arrow
Straight through your heart

3. On A Storyteller's Night

There's a storm lamp on the table
Throwing shadows to the gable
And you swallow if you're able
On a storyteller's night
From the poorhouse, chimes indifferent
Seven towers, seven sisters
Every black heart walks the distance
On a storyteller's night

Try to sleep on your pillow and dream
Sleep, all god's children to keep
Though we all lose track of time
Disappears like faded lines

Keep your nightlight burning – I'll come through wind and rain
Keep your nightlight burning – I'll be with you once again

There's a chill wind at your back door
And the fire cracks on the damp floor
You hear footsteps but you're not sure
On a storyteller's night
See the night sky supernova
Chase the cold moon passing over
Start the dragon's fire to smoulder
On a storyteller's night

Try to sleep on your pillow and dream
Sleep, all god's children to keep
Though we all lose track of time
Disappears like faded lines

Keep your nightlight burning – I'll come through wind and rain
Keep your nightlight burning – I'll be with you once again
Keep your nightlight burning – I'll come through wind and rain
Keep your nightlight burning – I'll be with you once again

Try to sleep on your pillow and dream
Sleep, all god's children to keep
Though we all lose track of time
Disappears like faded lines

Keep your nightlight burning – I'll come through wind and rain
Keep your nightlight burning – I'll be with you once again
Keep your nightlight burning – I'll come through wind and rain
Keep your nightlight burning – I'll be with you once again

4. Before First Light

Every step I take along the way
Every hour of every single day
You don't listen to a word I say
I stand patiently waiting here
You left a message on the nearest wall
Just the same as all the ones before
I don't believe it when you write you'll call
I stand patiently waiting here

I want you here to help me through the night
Want you, my dear, don't leave before first light
I want you here to help me through the night

Every step I take along the way
Every hour of every single day
You don't listen to a word I say
I stand patiently waiting here
You left a message on the nearest wall
Just the same as all the ones before
I don't believe it when you write you'll call
I stand patiently waiting here

I want you here to help me through the night
Want you, my dear, don't leave before first light
I want you here to help me through the night

5. Les Morts Dansant

Cannons roared, in the valley they thundered, while the guns lit up the night
Then it rained and both sides wondered who is wrong and who is right?
On the wire like a ragged old scarecrow, bloody hands and broken back
When they fire, see him pirouette solo, jump in time to the rat-a-tat

What a night, though it's one of seven
What a night for the dancing dead
What a night to be called to heaven
What a picture to fill your head

By the wall, in silhouette standing, through a flash of sudden light
Cigarette from his mouth, just hanging, paper square to his heart, pinned tight
Gather round reluctant marksmen, one of them to take his life
With a smile, he gives them pardon, leaves the dark and takes the light

What a night, though it's one of seven
What a night for the dancing dead
What a night to be called to heaven
What a picture to fill your head

They dispatch their precious cargo and knock him back right off his feet
And they pray may no one follow, better still to face the beast
When the field has become a garden and the wall has stood the test
Children play and the dogs run barking, who would think or who would guess?

What a night, though it's one of seven
What a night for the dancing dead
What a night to be called to heaven
What a picture to fill your head

6. Endless Love

You're a believer of the wayward call
Heavens above, what comes with that?
No crystal gazing on an empty shore
Don't dip your eyes, don't turn your back

You make no promises when you break their hearts
Your magic power turns to dust
You're off and running long before it starts
That's what you do, stay untouched

No endless love – can't find no endless love
No endless love – can't find no endless love

I've turned the corner and there's no one there
You've peeled your shadow off the wall
Now I've crossed the border and so please beware
I'm never sure of you at all

No endless love – can't find no endless love
No endless love – can't find no endless love

7. Two Hearts

Send my love on the telephone
No one answers, no one's home
Call after call, I just get nothing at all
Dirty feelings, they can't be right
Try again for tomorrow night
No luck at all has got me walking the floor

Good love – forsaken
Two hearts – one breaking
Good love – mistaken
Two hearts – one aching

Send my love on the telephone
No one answers, no one's home
Call after call, I just get nothing at all
Dirty feelings, they can't be right
Try again for tomorrow night
No luck at all has got me walking the floor

Good love – forsaken
Two hearts – one breaking
Good love – mistaken
Two hearts – one aching

8. Steal Your Heart

I never had a chance
Once I put my eyes on you
Too old to play romance
I said nothing that made sense to you

It took me by surprise
Breaking out is hard, that's true
It started from inside
No telling what the heart will do

But I'll steal your heart and you'll never recover
Steal your heart – you won't look to another
Steal your heart and you'll never recover

You had me from the start
Doesn't matter, wrong or right
You know you can't do things by half
Tomorrow is another night

I'll steal your heart and you'll never recover
Steal your heart – you won't look to another
Steal your heart and you'll never recover

9. All England's Eyes

Not forsaken, another heart
They lie taken in foreign parts
Someone breaking another heart
They lie waiting in foreign parts

Old england's skies
Turn black and she cries – wet again
All england's eyes
Turn black and they cry – yet again

Standing over another heart
Winds blow colder in foreign parts
And the nameless, the sacred heart
Come to claim us from foreign parts

Old england's skies
Turn black and she cries – wet again
All england's eyes
Turn black and they cry – yet again

10. The Last Dance

The last dance might be your last chance
Over your shoulder, you turn and you glance
They walk past, still no one has asked
Feeling much older, the evening has crashed

But don't surrender, don't you cry
Another lonely night, you've had enough
Another lonely night is one too much
Another lonely night, you might just give up

The last dance, you hide empty hands
No one comes near you, the noise of the band
You can't talk so you get up and walk
And all that you've been through, it's not like you thought

Don't surrender, don't you cry
Another lonely night, you've had enough
Another lonely night is one too much
Another lonely night, you might just give up
