Coming home from a month awaynTo empty cabinets and bednWell if there's love in this house againnThen let the lights shine through the windowsnAnd onto my headnnNow I stay in the citynWalk the street, search for somethingnSomething calls and its leavingnI am dreaming of a girl, she is not really therennAnd all I did see, the buildings they burn so brightnnI feel sorry for everythingnI'll watch the homeless woman sleepnJust like the dimes that I gave hernI am scattered and I will roll awaynnI dream of the other sidenComing home to see your mothernBest friends who mean all the worldnBut can't understand the ground that I walk onnnAnd all I did see, the buildings they burn so brightnnSome cry for the towersnI'll cry for the othersnWho wait here in a jail cellnLonely like a sailor, on the seanAlone on the seanI am lonely like a sailor, alone on the seannAnd all I did see, the buildings they burn so bright
