Lyrics for Deserted Cities Of The Heart

On these streets where the time had died The golden treat you never tried In times of old, in days gone by If I could catch your dancing eye It was on the way On the road to dreams, yea Now my heart's drowned in no love streams, yea The street is cold, its trees are gone The story's told, the dark has won Once we set sail to catch a star We had to fail, it was too far It was on the way On the road to dreams, yea Now my heart's drowned in no love streams, yea I've felt the wind shout like a drum You said, "My friend, love's end has come It couldn't last, had to stop You drained it all to the last drop" It was on the way On the road to dreams, yea Now my heart's drowned in no love streams Now my heart's drowned in no love streams, yea On these dark streets, the sun is black The winter life is coming back On these dark streets, it's cold inside There's no retreat from time that's died It was on the way On the road to dreams Now my heart's drowned in no love streams Yea, yea, yea, yea, yea, yea, yea, yea Now my heart's drowned in no love streams, yea Now my heart's drowned in no love
