Clear Light Street Singer Lyrics

Street Singer Lyrics

MY EYES ARE SOWN OPEN

UNABLE TO CLOSE

AND I’M STUNG BY THE BREEZE

THAT MY MEMORY BLOWS

AND THE BREEZE FANS THE FIRE

THAT BEGAN AS A SPARK

THE BLIND OLD STREET SINGER

SINGS SONGS IN THE DARK

BUT WHERE ARE THE SONGS OF THE BEAUTY



THE OLD ORGAN GRINDER

HAS JUST GONE INSANE

AND HIS MONKEY LIES DEAD

CHOKED TO DEATH BY ITS CHAIN

AND THE CUP IT LIES EMPTY

IT HASN’T A DIME

MY HEART BEAT IS SLOWED

IN TO THREE-FOUR TIME

AND WHER ARE THE SONGS OF MY BEAUTY



THE ANGER OF EMPTINESS

JUMPS FROM THE QUEEN

AS SHE SUMMONS HER JESTER

TO DANCE AND TO SING

BUT THE JESTER IS CRYING

AND REFUSES TO SING

HE’LL DIE IN THE MORNING

AT THE HANDS OF THE KING

BUT WHERE ARE THE SONGS OF FORGIVING?
