Running To Stand Still pt. 2

And so he woke up
He woke up from where he was lyin' still.
Said I, I gotta do something
About where we're goin'.

Step on a steam train
Step out of the driving rain, maybe
Run from the darkness in the night.
Singing ah, ah la la la de day

He walks through the streets
With eyes painted red
Under black belly of cloud in the rain.
In through a doorway
He brings me white golden pearls
Stolen from the sea.

He's running to stand still.
