Can you feel me? Would you touch me? Can you help me? Hey you, out there in the cold Getting lonely, getting old Hey you, standing in the aisles With itchy feet and fading smiles Hey you, don't help them to bury the light Don't give in without a fight

Is there no mercy in this land? No mercy in this land? What would be the first thing You'd say to the Lord? And the last thing you would dream If you couldn't dream no more? Won't you please help me to understand Followed the river 'til the river ran dry

Can you feel me? Would you touch me? Can you help me? Hey you, out there in the cold Getting lonely, getting old Hey you, standing in the aisles With itchy feet and fading smiles Hey you, don't help them to bury the light Don't give in without a fight

Paralyzed by my envy of the night I am lost without you here And outside it looks like rain For the last time, I bleed myself dry tonight And nothing I could ever write would help you understand this life There's so much beauty when your eyes lay lost in
