Seth Lakeman - Spinning Days lyrics

Wrapped in fiction, soaked in sin A broken heart he let them in A childhood chapel all filled with rage Twisted faces in a crooked cage The long goodbye, condemned inside (With) a chequered past of (those) tricks and lies The painfull price, the dark devils dice He threw his chances and (he) held on tight Spinning days go by, x2 For faith and fate the boatman waits This river racing, (it's) the midnight chase Those silver flashes, (they) pierce her soul She's a lonely witness to the truth untold Spinning days go by x2 Spinning tears in his eyes Spinning tears run dry Spinning days go by (And there is) One more stain, a d**h in vein A young man lost, now nothing gained So many more, have pa**ed this way Will never grace, the cold light of day Spinning days go by x2 Spinning tears in his eyes Spinning tears run dry Spinning days went by Spinning days go by x2
