David Elias - The Great Unknown lyrics

The Great Unknown In a little red world with a great red eye Red iron rotting far below In a red request from the Redmond guest With a red will rolling towards the door In a little green world with a green return >From the canopy that you can�t see Under green cashmere where you hardly hear All the green regrets from memory With those tired eyes makeup and scars Laughter and tears leave trails the same With those tired arms pickup the night Head back over to the West End Watch those city lights by morning light You can�t exchange your only fare Only street cement knows where you went No one would believe that you were there It�s after hours you played the Plough You saw everything from the stage The smoke was loud the talk way proud Running off an empty page You find the key You turn it on Look forward to the hum of tires You�re way out west You�re on your own You�re off to find the great unknown In a little white world with a white roadside And white stripes way on down the line The great white hope The great white lie The great white markers of your time
