Roddy Frame - Day of Reckoning lyrics

Satellite town shook up youth I used to dream of an unshakeable truth Something I could fly my flag upon and never need to give in But now I'm all through taking swipes I got promoted and I lost my stripes I'm ditchin' all I've been b**hin' about and letting love come in I used to walk down lonely street Past the bars and the grand hotels Checking out all the beautiful people who were checking in Now I walk like the street is mine Hand in hand with our dreams entwined Baby, you brought about my day of reckoning I see the sun paint the whole town red And softly show me back to you instead I'm confessin' all my sins and I'm reachin' with a higher aim Strolling down by the marketplace Hangin' music on a half - seen face But rollin' round in my head is the sound of "I Heard Her Call My Name" What's the deal with the fear I feel, is it the real me squealin'? On the one on the run from the sum of my heart and soul Who'd take a trip round the universe In my head while my world got worse And disengage, slip my stays, float away until I'd lost control
