Lyrics
Skipped the taxicab To walk this night Along the city street Through the alley And your threadbare world, Surprised to glimpse a smile Grateful I'm not there in your shoes But should I be You were there dancing In the glow of the streetlights And the trashcan fires I see in you More than I've built Oh-oh-oh-oh Crumbling satisfaction Or greed Take me all the Way down To such a sweet economy Oh-oh-oh-oh Joy There's just enough Enough for each of us Traced the horrors Of your war-torn world Across my TV screen Imagine my shock To watch the laughter Now lighting your bright young eyes Could my heart live Where you are What audacity! You were there singing In the shadow of gunfire And dark desire Chorus I’ll stay here Beside you til it comes clear Contentment is a flame Burning brighter Burning brighter The blacker the night I see in you More than I've built With every tower of Crumbling satisfaction Or greed Take me all the Way down To such a sweet economy When it comes to joy There's just enough Enough for each of us
