lyrics

Earth sky sea and rain
Is she coming back again
Men of straw, snooker hall
Words that build or destroy
Dirt dry bone sand and stone
Barbed-wire fence cut me down
I'd like to be around
In a spiral staircase
To the higher ground

And I, like a firework, explode
Roman candle lightning lights up the sky

In the cracked streets trampled underfoot
Sidestep, sidewalk
I see you stare into space
Have I got closer now
Behind the face

Oh... tell me...
Charity dance with me
Turn me around tonight
Up through spiral staircase
To the higher ground

Slide show seaside town
Coca-Cola, football radio radio radio
Radio, radio radio...

Promenade

The Unforgettable Fire ((1984)) The Unforgettable Fire (1984)
