John Cale - Tell Me Why lyrics

There's an end to the road that takes you home There's a way of life you knew before At the end of the day you will have your rest You'll find a way You'll find a way Don't resist the morning calm It will keep you safe from harm The time will come when help is found You leave behind the things form the past Though the road is long and hard and the path is wide We climb it still and seize the skies It's only a matter of time It's only a matter of time The landscape has changed and the mood has gone Along with the rest we carry on If you take me back in space in time I'll let the journey begin and keep it with mine On this coat of many colours there's a lot of room for others I see in your face the reason why You fell from grace and you cannot find The way from here that leads you back To the place that you know the best And its distance from the rest You tell me why there's a saviour looking on with the weak and the strong, taking us to higher ground
