Long Window To Love

Long Window to Love - Deacon Blue

Taking down the signs

The time has come and the cleansing's coming

You're turning down the lights

In this cruel light symbols mean nothing

You're taking down the signs

Turning round your eyes

From dreams that seem so bright

Flying hope like kites

Hold loved ones tight

And turning to the light of

That long window to love

The long window to love

Forget about the years

About the planting

And the dying and the growing

Forget about your cares

But you remember

That they've been forgotten

By the people sent to London

Taking down your cares

Drinking off your tears

Gambling on your fears

For things that cost so dear

Won't be paid for years

Hoping you won't stare down

That long window to love

The long window to love

They'd burgle all your sanity

If it would let them hold you under

They'd knock on your door

So hard the frame would crack under the strain

It's just the same just the same

It's just the same just the same

Taking down the signs

The time has come

And the cleansing's coming

You're turning down the lights

In this cruel light symbols mean nothing

Taking down the signs

Turning round your eyes

From dreams that seem so bright

Flying hope like kites

Hold loved ones tight

And turning to the light

Of that long window to love

The long window to love

The long window to love

The long window to love
