In the Attic

[Verse 1] I ran an' hid In the attic In the middle Of a tornado I watched the wind Tear up the orchard Tree by tree Lay them gently down again [Chorus] Cities that shine like El Dorado Now it's sleeping like a shadow An' I can't wake it up again The stars above you to shining roads Now nothin' knows quite where it goes An' I can't get to sleep again [Verse 2] I ran and hid In the attic In the middle Of a tornado I watched the wind Tear the walls in And the animals They never feel so low again [Chorus] Cities that shine like El Dorado Now it's sleeping like a shadow An' I can't wake it up again The stars above you to shining roads Now nothin' knows quite where it goes An' I can't get to sleep again [Outro] The stars above you to shine on queue Now they're actin' a bit confused An' I can't make 'em shine again Oh no
