Alannah Myles - Living On A Memory

The street light crawls into a bare bulb hotel Where dead eyes shine there’s a story to tell It’s a life of crime on a bed of stone When the devil calls you’re better off alone And now I’m hiding from the light, running from my destiny Haunted by a flame, lying low, livin’ on a memory The bugs still bite and the breezes blow Between your dreams right through your clothes The days roll by like cars on a train And the August sky still looks like rain And now I’m hiding from the light, running from my destiny Haunted by a flame, lying low, livin’ on a memory Haunted by a dream, I can’t escape this reverie Trying to break away, lying low, livin’ on a memory I’ll be walking behind you, I’m a face on the wind I’ll be watchin’, still payin’ for my sins I’m drifting down the river so slow As the lights of town are beginning to glow And now I’m hiding from the light, running from my destiny Haunted by a flame, lying low, livin’ on a memory Haunted by a dream, I can’t escape from this reverie Trying to break away, lying low, livin’ on a memory...
