Diesel Park West - Somewhere In The Afterglow lyrics

Yeah, the songbird sings a sweet tune I'm standing at St. Anne's Corner waiting for you I'm through with dreaming And drapes of Flemish lace I took all that could be expected Of a man my age The law it wears a flimsy crown Naked when it's ma** slips down Who've they caught in the honey jar now Some paragon on the wrong side of town, I bet you Somewhere in the afterglow We'll put this world to rights Just you and I and the lovers' tale If nothing can stop us now I sometimes look at photographs There I am standing in the past Looking for the knife at my back Tell who was it I was thinking of, babe? Did they have a face at all? Now, somewhere in the afterglow We'll put this world to rights Just you and I and the lovers' tale If nothing can stop us now Not even hurricanes or flash lightning Nor fair-weather friends could reach us here No ills or sorrow or worrying about tomorrow Nobody's act we've got to follow I've never felt so alive I've read about the books they wrote Usually somebody else's quote Can't even laugh at their own jokes Tell me what do they imagine's happening Somewhere in the afterglow We'll put this world to the rights Just you and I and the things we know They're ours for all time Somewhere in the afterglow We'll take comfort in the night Yeah, you and I and the lovers' tale If nothing can stop, that's right Now, somewhere in the afterglow We'll put this world to rights Just you and I and the human tale There's no one to stop us now
