City We Call Love Songtext
von The Blinders

Drink up from my tongue
And strip my body of these rags
Tonight we plant the flag in the city that we call love

And there are birds in the city
In the city there are birds
And I followed them deep
Until I could not hear their words

So
Drink up from my tongue
And strip my body of these rags
Tonight we plant the flag in the city that we call love


I ride alongside the ghost of the TV light
As the twilight dawn begins to turn the streets to gold
Chasing winds to their deaths
And walls become perfect
Painted pictures drawn as if just for my soul
We are one step from tomorrow
We are the figures of Pompeii
We are them, they are we
Before the volcanic rain

So
Drink up from my tongue
And strip my body of these rags
Tonight we plant the flag in the city that we call love

Only you can sink this city
This city we call love
Not the volcanic ash
Or the acid rains that could, yeah

Drink up from my tongue
And strip my body of these rags
Tonight we plant the flag in the city that we call love

Yeah, drink up from my tongue
And strip my body of these rags
Tonight we plant the flag in the city that we call love

Yeah, drink up from my tongue
And strip my body of these rags
Tonight we plant the flag in the city that we call love, yeah
