The Cry of the City (New Track Recorded in Practice Room) Songtext

von The Coral

Hear the cry as the city weeps
People moving through the street
And don't mind me, going down the the river

Working hard to make it pay
Working hard to make their way
But don't mind me, going down to the river

I can hear the cry of the city
Can you hear the cry of the city?

Passed the statue where the water flows
Million faces that I'll never know
And don't mind me, going down the the river

Boats are leaving for another land
Watch it slipping through my hands
But don't mind me, going down to the river

I can hear the cry of the city
Can you hear the cry of the city?

Hear the cry as the city weeps
People looking but no-one sees
And don't mind me, going down to the river

Like the actor in the film I saw
Had enough but wanted more
And don't mind me, going down to the river

I can hear the cry of the city
Can you hear the cry of the city?
