From "In This Life" 1986
Lyrics
CAMBRIDGE (AOF)
Wired
only halfway wired to some uncelebrated dream
Wired
in the back page listing where dust fills in the seams
We are found in no place
We are forgotten phrase
Wired
dancing across the wires like puppets on a string
Wired
and our hearts in sequence beat around a ring
We leave no stone unturned
We leave no fire unburned
There's no second guessing
for things that are out of our hands
and no tears of regret for nights that will never
heppen here in Cambridge
Broken
and our vows like split leaves
fall to earth apart
Broken
in the spaces where we never found a spark
I remember street signs
I remember plans
Once as twice
and twice as once
and once is never enough
here in Cambridge
Panic
that is set in place and cast on every breath
Panic
with which we erase what will never come to pass
In this room I fear
We will share it here
It fills me
got me on the run
There's no one here who goes by that name
There's no one here who goes by that name
Nothing lasts
and nothing's new
Oh God give me something I know is true
Give me something I know is true
Give me something I know is true
Give me something I know is true
