Chorus

Erasure

Go ahead with your dreamin'

For what it's worth

Or you'll be stricken bound

Kickin' up dirt

For when it's dark

You never know what the night it may bring



Go ahead with your schemin'

And shop at home

You'll find treasure

While cookin' up bones

But the knife is sharp

You'd better watch that you don't cut your hands



And they covered up the sun

Until the birds had flown away

And the fishes in the sea

Had gone to sleep



And they covered up the sun

Until the birds had flown away

And the fishes in the sea

Had gone to sleep



Go ahead with your dreamin'

For what it's worth

Or you'll be stricken bound

Kickin' up dirt

For when it's dark

You never know what the night it may bring



Go ahead with your schemin'

And shop at home

You'll find treasure

While cookin' up bones

But the knife is sharp

You'd better watch that you don't cut your hands



And they covered up the sun

Until the birds had flown away

And the fishes in the sea

Had gone to sleep



And they covered up the sun

Until the birds had flown away

And the fishes in the sea

Had gone to sleep



Holy Moses our hearts are screaming

Souls are lifting only dreaming

We'll be waiting some are praying

For a time when no one's cheating



The sunlight rising over the horizon

Just a distant memory a dawn chorus

Birds singing bells ringing

In our hearts in our minds



And they covered up the sun

Until the birds had flown away

And the fishes in the sea

Had gone to sleep



And they covered up the sun

Until the birds had flown away

And the fishes in the sea

Had gone to sleep



And they covered up the sun

Until the birds had flown away

And the fishes in the sea

Had gone to sleep



And they covered up the sun

Until the birds had flown away

And the fishes
