Weeping in the Wings Songtext
von David Knopfler

Weeping in the Wings Songtext

Where were you at Wounded Knee?
What use were you strung out cool on a tree?
What use were you weeping in the wind?
Where are you now for so many things?
Weeping in the wings
Weeping in the wings
You′re no use to us
Just weeping in the wings
Weeping in the wings
Weeping in the wings
You're no use to us
Just weeping in the wings
In the killing fields or where a plague bell rings
What′s it with you that you miss all these things?
Takes out the beggars, fools, potentates and kings
You're no use to us if you're just weeping in the wings
Weeping in the wings
Weeping in the wings
You′re no use to us
Just weeping in the wings


Weeping in the wings
Weeping in the wings
You′re no use to us
Just weeping in the wings
We're where the famine locust brings
We′re for the droughts and the dried up springs
We're for another million things
You′re no use to us just weeping in the wings
Weeping in the wings
Weeping in the wings
You're no use to us
Just weeping in the wings
Weeping in the wings
Weeping in the wings
You′re no use to us
Just weeping in the wings
You took a flyer down in Dakar that time
Didn't smell carnage, hear the trains on the line
I mean you'd have to be deaf and you′d have to be blind
You′d have to be something that is more than unkind
Weeping in the wings
Weeping in the wings
You're no use to us
You′re just weeping in the wings
Weeping in the wings
Weeping in the wings
You're no use to us
Just weeping in the wings
Can′t you forgive us, can we forgive you?
Who takes the rap for the evil we do?
Who in hell made us man, the trouble we bring?
How great is the love that will forgive us our sins?
Weeping in the wings
Weeping in the wings
No one can stop us from doing these things
Weeping in the wings
Weeping in the wings
There's no grace or deliverance
