Straight to You

Lyrics

[Verse 1] All the towers of ivory are crumbling And the swallows have sharpened their beaks This is the time of our great undoing This is the time that I'll come running [Chorus] Straight to you For I am captured Straight to you For I am captured One more time [Verse 2] Oh, the light in our window is fading The candle gutters on the ledge Well now sorrow, it comes a-stealing And I'll cry, girl, but I'll come running [Chorus] Straight to you For I am captured Straight to you For I am captured Once again [Verse 3] Gone are the days of rainbows And gone are the nights of swinging from the stars For the sea will swallow up the mountains And the sky will throw thunderbolts and sparks [Chorus] Straight at you But I'll come running Straight to you But I'll come running One more time [Verse 4] Oh, heaven has denied us its kingdom And the saints, they're all drunk, and howling at the moon And chariots of angels are colliding Well, I'll run, babe, but I'll come running [Chorus] Straight to you For I am captured Straight to you For I am captured One more time
