(Winwood/Capaldi) I can't afford to take a rest, I'm heading out towards the sun And find the place where I once saw a new life starting It's not so far to get there, it's waiting up around the bend Don't know if I'll be back again Through the night I'm flying, moving like a raven To the night unfolding I call your name To the night I whisper, to the night I pray Through the night I'm racing Far from home I've always tried to do my best, I never cheated anyone Not like the place where they once turned the wine into water
Running from all pretensions, nothing blocking up my view No more feeling black and blue 'Cause tonight I'm not a lonely man, yes tonight, oh tonight Keep holding on to false directions, they'll never set you free You got to stop the world and let it be, then maybe you will see ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 1994 fs Music Ltd./Freedom Songs Ltd.
