Renaissance - Flood At Lyons Lyrics
You lie in peaceful slumbersBut yet so proudSo safe the second cityHouses reach the skyline andFar below the narrow streets that singWith the movement of the crowdNo break from daily changesAs life goes onSecure as French men can beFill your time with love and wineAnd in your heart you'll know as long as youThere will always be a songThen on a winter's dayWith your face against the cold and rainIn the wind there's changesThe rivers riseThe water grips the town - tears fill her eyes[Chorus:]I'm standing here which way to goThe crossroads call, but they don't knowMidnight, caught insideI'm standing here, could all be lostThe crossroads callYou've stood so longIt weaves the strangest pictureOf silky threadThe shadows cast reflectionLyons as the water's bedTrees that stand look straight aheadAnd search for a sight of distant landThis was a winter's dayIn your heart you felt the cold and rainChange the wind to silenceThere's not a soundSilver patterns run and danceUpon the ground[Chorus]
