(for Jenny) |
|
I'm a working alien in a land of heat and stone a casulaty of an economic war that took me away from home. |
|
It's the politics of money and power |
|
It's the hope that we can build a future in world getting smaller everywhere |
|
Bridge: I can hear a siren in the workyard another shift and |
|
I'll be closer to you |
|
I'm a working dog in |
|
Babylon and only your love can get me through |
|
Chorus: Foreign nights -- took you away from me |
|
Foreign nights -- are not where |
|
I belong Foreign nights -- filled with dust and dreams |
|
Foreign nights -- trapped me in |
|
Babylon AS long as |
|
I keep moving |
|
I know I will be all right cause if |
|
I stop to think |
|
I'll drown and sink in the sea of foreign nights |
|
I've got to keep my hands busy got to keep pushing through got to learn to deal with this time away from you |
|
Bridge: I can hear a siren in the workyard another shift and |
|
I'll be closer to you |
|
I'm a working dog in |
|
Babylon and only your love can get me through |
|
Chorus.... |
|
Quiet moments in the dark are hardest to face the sun goes down but not the pain |
|
I want to be with you all the time |
|
I want to be with you, to be with you all my life |
|
I'm going to have to get through... foreign nights. |
