Red House Painters - Between Days lyrics

Hanging low a beaming ray of Aztec moon And throwing down a glow on this flourescent tomb And cooling off and phasing out the chlorine bed Shadows out the walls of sun-baked clay adobe red Void of movement, void of feeling, void of life Channel crackles, Spanish chirps in the night Don't feel sour in your far window bed Don't be bothered by no words in your head And the sun goes down in just an hour So bring a pretty stem of flowers And make what's dead come alive And for the long and lonely ride Ancient highways Desert dust, diamond lit sky Like some lost planet Never breathes any life And barely moving Broken wheels bend and crawl Tucked away and stuck in Nylon seats until dawn Wake me up when you can hear And the sound of people getting near And where what's dead become alive And ends our long and lonely ride Looking low as so much life around us blooms Life from heaven smiles down on this room Some parade of colours Marching on, music plays Morning slips to evening Falls through holes in between days And you can lose another year Where the pictures perfect here And where what's dead come alive And where your love comes alive
