Dawn Chorus

I'm a lonely man walking lonely streets
 I'm soaked to the skin with the pain of my unease
 From such a strained existence
 The tension in this world keeps me from sleep
 I'm hungry and cold
 There's a weight hanging over my shoulders
 A rain black cloud of doubt
 Have I got enough love
 Have I got enough hope?
 Enough strength to face the world each day?
 I know there's an answer somewhere in this night
 I see her each time I look in your eyes
 I'm walking in a wild place
 I am banging on the gates
 On the other side of the tracks babe
 Hoping that someone's gonna hear me pray
 Oh there's a dawn chorus breaking out all over the town
 Will you say you want me,
 Will I say I want you?
 Will you say you love me
 When I'm stripped and forced to stand up naked
 And will I still love you
 The goal that I want can't exist without fire
 And you fire the thoughts that realise all my dreams
 These are a grown man's tears
 I lost all faith, I lost all hope
 I started drinking, life became a joke
 Something would keep me going.
 I didn't know what it was
 But I saw it each time I looked in your eyes
 I'm walking in a wild place
 I am banging on the gates
 On the other side of the tracks babe
 Hoping that someone's gonna hear me pray
 Oh there's a dawn chorus breaking out all over the town
 Oh my god
 Why do I feel the doubt
 You give me something I can't live without
 Yet from somewhere there comes an emptiness
 A feeling that I can't suppress
 Is this the start of the beginning or the point of no return?
 There's an answer there
 When I look in your eyes
 I'm walking in a wild place
 I am banging on the gates
 On the other side of the tracks babe
 Where all my doubts are now laid away away away away
 I'm walking in a wild place
 I am banging on the gates
 On the other side of the tracks babe
 Where someone answered my prayers
 Oh there's a dawn chorus breaking out all over the town
 (That's too sad)
