Easy as Sin

Darkness will trip darkness will fall Get no sleep on Salisbury street Mud on my shoes sweat on my palms Get no sleep on Salisbury street There is another time it could have been different I know if it were you'd be there Over the Pennines and out of the station And finally up to a room A voice in my head and the cut won't heal On Amberigde walk in Salisbury street And what about her well she nettles my thoughts Hatred creeps down Salisbury street To gloat is as ugly as soaking yourself In a wave of remorse I shout on the shingle soaked to the skin By a river that's taken its course To do good is so tempting it hurts A tale complete from Salisbury street To do bad is as easy as sin A tale complete from Salisbury street
