Swing Out Sister - Filth And Dreams lyrics

You're my gilmmer of hope In a time filled with doubt Sprinkle soul soothing words On my imperfect world Like only an angel could Can't come clean from the past Or your dreams pay the cost In the cold light of day When your joy slips away You're still a part of me When will i give you up completely Still wishing from the other side (chorus) How can you smile so sweetly Why do i still believe in filth and dreams Filth and dreams In the depths of your mind There's a truth you can't hide Happiness can't be gained Till you've felt hurt and shame Until you've suffered enough Life's a wound that won't heal No-one knows what you feel In the cold light of day When the joy slips away You're still a part of me Chorus I said it may sound mean But where there's dirt there are dreams And they'll disappear as soon as you wipe away your tears And wash your sadness clean, hey yeah This mess we're in is where they joy begins And on the road that lies ahead lies your future happiness And all the hope in your heart, yeah Hey you Talking sideways and looking me in the eye How can you smile so sweetly Why do i still believe in filth and dreams Filth and dreams Filth and dreams Filth and dreams Filth and dreams Filth and dreams Filth and dreams
