There was a banquet of believers When we walked into the room December days of Christmas Felt like days in June And there were morning light And sunrise chimes echoed all around Now's the time for weary minds The moon is northern bound
And you know I'm going back Going back today Back to where I came from And you know I'm going back Going back to stay To the alleys where pearls of passion came my way
There's a promise in the twilight It's so innocent and wild. Two hearts that break the silence You can hear a distant cry And there's emptiness and loneliness It's more or less the same Let's run between the raindrops babe And catch the midnight train
And you know I'm going back Going back today Back to where I came from And you know I'm going back Going back to stay To the alleys where pearls of passion came my way
And you know I'm going back Going back today Back to where I came from And you know I'm going back Going back to stay To the alleys where pearls of passion came my way
