king crimson - exiles [the night watch] lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
now in this faraway land
strange that the palms of my hands
should be damp with expectancy

[instrumental]

[verse 2]
spring, and the air’s turning mild
city lights and the glimpse of a child
of the alleyway infantry

[verse 3]
friends – do they know what i mean?
rain and the gathering green
of an afternoon out of town

[bridge]
but lord i had to go
the trail was laid too slow behind me
to face the call of fame
or make a drunkard’s name for me
though now this better life
has brought a different understanding
and through these endless days
shall come a broader sympathy
and though i count the hours
to be alone’s no injury
[verse 4]
my home was a place by the sand
cliffs and a military band
blew an air of normality
