Old man lying by the side of the road

As the lorries pass me by

Full moon sinkin' from the weight of the load

And the buildings scrape the sky

Cold wind rippin' down the alley at dawn

And the morning paper flies

Dead man lying by the side of the road

With the daylight in his eyes

Don't let it bring you down

It's only castles burnin'

Find someone who's turnin'

And you will come around

Blind man walkin' by the river at night

With an answer in his hand

Come on down to the river of sight

Where you can really understand

Red lights flashing through the window in the rain

Can you hear the sirens moan?

White cane lying in the gutter in the lane

If you're walking home alone

Don't let it bring you down

It's only castles burnin'

Find someone who's turnin'

And you will come around

Old man lying by the side of the road

As the lorries pass me by

Full moon sinkin' from the weight of the load

And the buildings scrape the sky

Cold wind rippin' down the alley at dawn

And the morning paper flies

Dead man lying by the side of the road

With the daylight in his eyes

Don't let it bring you down

It's only castles burnin'

Find someone who's turnin'

And you will come around

You will come around

You will come around

You will come around...
