lyrics

The light of day: Lyrics by Espin Bowder (The Gecko)

The truth is illusive
It refuses and it loses
In the light of day it’s an eel that slipping away into the shade
In the light of day it’s an eel that’s slipping away, you need more than the light of day
But it’s the light of day with which we are dealing anyway, yeah anyway
You unravel the cord on which we are hanging to the stars
So where do the innocent turn?

If you did it or if you didn’t. What do I give, what the truth is?
Would you permit it to be a witness?
And leave it open to face the critics? (critics, critics)

But it’s the light of day with which we are dealing anyway, yeah anyway
You unravel the cord from which we are hanging to the stars
So where do the innocent turn
So where do the innocent turn
So where do the innocent turn?
They’ll turn, I guess you know they’ll turn, unravelling the yarn until they touch the ground and root to grow the words to let themselves be heard.
where do the innocent turn
where do the innocent turn
where do the innocent turn?

This British/German collaboration is based in Berlin. ... more
