lyrics
In a city full of strangers
I see the clear and present danger
There’s no room to find a manger
Or some silence
There’s bums in shopping cart cages
Everyone has a thousand different faces
There’s the same damn smell in these places
Like violence
And I heard you say again
That it’s hard to find a friend
I said, “I’m fine with mine.”
You said, “Let a little love,”
“Let a little love shine.”
To the neighborhood watchmen I bid afternoon
To the village bicycle I gawk and swoon
All things they end so soon
When you are drinking
Bus driver take me to the station
midnight blow my imagination
Once I was on a vacation
Now I’ve been thinking
And I heard you say again
That you slept with the best of men
I said, “What a waste of time.”
You said, “Let a little love,”
“Let a little love shine.”
In this place I hear them whisper
Like a villain in a cistern
They’re Saying, “Can you help us Mister,”
“For we are hopeless.”
I said, “I didn’t die to save you”
“I just came to sing the blues”
“And this world’s fresh out of truth,”
“But surely you should know this.”
And you made me try to pretend
That it was the end
I said, “I’m drinking wine.”
You said, “Let a little love,”
“Let a little love shine.”
The pedestrians are growin faint
They lie in a pool of blood red paint
I’m sending away to be a saint
But I’m a bird on a wire
There’s too much dirt to even think
turn your heart to black from pink
So I grab another drink
And retire
And you said how could I pray
Then just turn my head away
I said, “Have you seen my mind?”
You said, “Let a little love,”
“Let a little love shine.”
As I look out upon the night parade
It looks like one big giant charade
The crowds beginning to fade
And I’m coming down
As I talk to an age-old bum
we share a bottle of rum
He said, “Life just ain’t that fun,”
“So what’s the point in coming around?”
I look in to his eyes
I tell him to be wise
He said, “You’re no friend of mine.”
I said, “Let a little love,”
“Let a little love shine.”
