War Against Sleep - Bedminster Parade lyrics

Bedminster parade - the lights and the arcade are sparkling and new for me and for you I stopped in a doorway to count up the money I kept in my coat - not a single note And I started to feel the familiar sensation of my spirits undone - like father like son Nobody watched when I picked up the cigarette dimps of the floor I leaned against the door On Bedminster Parade I waited for you in the rain I rolled up a fat smoke with liquorice papers and set it alight I breathed in the night My head was all spinning and my ears were ringing as I walked down the road to my sweet abode And I stumbled into a young maiden with pretty things tattooed on her arms I meant her no harm Now I don't know where I am going but it is exciting and real - All this love I feel On Bedminster Parade I waited for you in the rain
