mark knopfler – precious voice from heaven lyrics
[intro]
remember your skinny young folk’s nerves
with his guitar and his greasy cap
do you still want your ageing hipster
with his records and his trilby hat
[verse]
angel heart, it’s time to let go
it’s so much harder to live in this town
fact of it is, i’m fourty+two years old
and the venues are closing down
[verse]
folk rocks just beat up old names
i’ve been holding out as long as i can
it’s a new tech crowd, it’s a property game
and i’d need to be a richer man
[chorus]
ah but you have a precious voice from heaven
a once+in+a+blue+moon ecstasy
you could sing the phone book
if there was still a phone book
you could sing the phone book
it would sound beautiful to me
[verse]
and now are days when i get up and sing
they’ll be talking like i’m not even there
now it appears i’m maybe not that thing
that’s okay, though it’s not that i don’t care
[verse]
with all the rest of the semi+fixed abodes
with their colours and their songs and their souls
i’d be long gone down the road
if not for you girl, and rent control
[chorus]
ah but you have a precious voice from heaven
a once+in+a+blue+moon ecstasy
you could sing the phone book
if there was still a phone book
you could sing the phone book
it would sound beautiful to me
yeah, you could sing the phone book
if there was still a phone book
you could sing the phone book
it would sound beautiful to me
[outro 5x]
cool kids who make your town
gotta help them stick around
you wanna keep your city hip
or all the kids will desert the ship
