Lights of Te Touan by Everything But The Girl Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 1994

[Verse 1]
Imagine waking unaware
The light of heaven touched your hair
Morning struggled sun was here and gone
Born into empty air
The signals changed the engines flared
There's a place you know I'm always there

[Verse 2]
Ride on the early trains
Past the wedding in the rain
They closed the open door and the white smoke blew away
And never made a dumb mistake
To eat your orange and your cake
But never say your good luck isn't there

[Bridge]
If I could speak with you
About a hundred things I'd say
Dear friend it's true
All that you say
[Verse 3]
And these days that passed through time
You closed your eyes you could see the lights of Te Touan shine
In the morning you were drinking again
And born into wealth and care
Imagine waking unaware
And there's a place you know I never dare

[Bridge]
If I could speak with you
It's sure a hundred years away
Dear friend it's true
All that you say

[Verse 4]
And never made a dumb mistake
So eat your orange and your cake
And never say your good luck isn't there
Hey, never say your good luck isn't there
