David Gray - Nos Da Cariad

One lifetime is long enough

One lifetime is long enough

Is long enough to wait

The rain like silver in my ears

Fat nothing on my plate

A bucketful of Babylon

A belly full of hate

Go to sleep my one true love

And may your dreams be sweet

Then we’ll be running

Then we’ll be running

See its face beneath the glass

See its face beneath the glass

It murmurs on the breeze

Like a long black Cadillac

It passes ‘neath the trees

What is it you’re waiting for?

Sweet love is on its knees

Go to sleep my one true love

And find your heart’s release

Then we’ll be running

Then we’ll be running

Afraid of nothing

Yeah we’ll be running

Silence is golden

Here I am

I ain’t afraid of nothing

Silence is golden

Here I am

The sun above the cotton grass

Silence is golden

Here I am

I ain’t afraid of nothing

Silence is golden

Here I am

The sun above the cotton grass

The sun above the cotton grass

Is sinking down like lead

The seagulls know the truth of it

And scream it overhead

Hold on to St. Christopher

The sky is murderous red

Go to sleep my one true love

Our glory lies ahead

Then we’ll be running

Then we’ll be running

Afraid of nothing

Then we’ll be running

All wired up in a dawning ray

All wired up in a dawning ray

All wired up in a dawning ray

All wired up in a dawning ray

All wired up in a dawning ray
