Claw and Wing

[Verse 1] It's gloomy Sunday once again Been gloomy since the day began And I've only got my self to blame [Verse 2] I ran around a zoo of lusts My hopes and dreams now dashed to dust Don't ask if I remember anybody's name [Verse 3] In claw and wing I hear the call That sweetheart deal's no deal at all It's a little cheap, but it's music to my ears [Verse 4] I have to smile, I have to say If I could hear it every day Then I'd be able to make it through these coming years [Chorus] So we stand on the throat of the threat 'Til the fear calmed down Stand on thе shores of victory Jump, we won't drown And whatevеr makes you feel better It's all right by me It's the thing we all need [Interlude] Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh [Verse 5] So like a dog without a home Some folks say you're not alone I'm more forsaken then they could ever know [Verse 6] I watch a clock that never moves And nick a pill that never soothes Ain't that always the way the story goes [Verse 7] In claw and wing I hear the call That sweetheart deal's no deal at all It's a song so gentle it buzzes around with the bees [Verse 8] I have to smile, I have to say If I could hear it every day Then maybe I would cease to feel so ill at ease [Chorus] So we stand on the throat of the threat 'Til the fear calmed down Stand on the shores of victory If we jump, we won't drown And whatever makes you feel better Now, it's all right by me It's the thing we all need
