Eye Of The Hurricane

The Alarm Eye Of The Hurricane Lyrics
1.Rain In The Summertime.

Sweat, like a train
I come, i come,
My body to dust
Scorched by the might of the sun

Burning light, burning white heat
Like wildfire
I sweat a fever
My body screams
Disintegrates in the heat

Our love is the faith that keeps on burning

I love to feel the rain in the summertime
I love to feel the rain on my face
I love to feel the rain in the summertime
I love to feel the rain on my face

Burnt at the stake, on a bed of fire
My body rises
Taking me higher
My loves desire
Is pure ascension fire

And love is the faith that keeps on burning

I love to feel the rain in the summertime
I love to feel the rain on my face
I love to feel the rain in the summertime
I love to feel the rain on my face

And then i run 'til the breath tears my throat
'til the pain hits my side
As if i run fast enough
I can leave all the pain and the sadness behind

I love to feel the rain in the summertime
I love to feel the rain on my face
I love to feel the rain in the summertime
I love to feel the rain on my face
(i love to feel the rain on my face)
(in the summertime)


2.Newtown Jericho

Like characters in paintings
Turners frightening 'scapes
Industrial inside a nation of no escape
There's no escape in my frightened face
As we run run run
And turn to stone

Oh lord hear me now
The fanfare sounds in a newtown jericho
Oh lord the wailing sound
Of helpless souls in a newtown jericho

See them fall
The rebecca ride at dawn
Petticoat ghost and tom
Working to reclaim the land for no reward
There's no reward my daughters of dawn
As we run run run
And turn to stone

Oh lord hear me now
The fanfare sounds in a newtown jericho
Oh lord the wailing sound
Of helpless souls in a newtown jericho

I've been down amongst the crying there
Upon my knees i'm dying
And polsen dragged across the city walls
Upon a wooden horse

Horse

Horse

Horse

This is jericho

Oh lord hear me now
The fanfare sounds in a newtown jericho
Oh lord the wailing sound
Of helpless souls in a newtown jericho

Jericho, jericho
Jericho, jericho
Jericho, jericho
Jericho, jericho

Oh lord


3.Hallowed Ground

In the northem towns
The boys have all gone away
Trying to find work down south

And mister i walk in the valley of the shadow
Won't someone have mercy on my soul
On my soul, soul, soul

Hallowed ground how sad is the sound
In a valley that once sang out sang proud
Hallowed ground where the ships run aground
To die in the harbour in a rust ridden town, town, town, town

Now i've seen the future
And i've seen the past
And i've seen the lights go down
On this world fading fast

And mister i walk in the valley of the shadow
Won't someone have mercy on my soul
On my soul, soul, soul

Hallowed ground how sad is the sound
In a valley that once sang out sang proud
Hallowed ground where the ships run aground
To die in the harbour in a rust ridden town, town, town, town

And mister i walk in the valley of the shadow
Won't someone have mercy on my soul
On my soul, soul, soul

Hallowed ground how sad is the sound
In a valley that once sang out sang proud
Hallowed ground where the ships run aground
To die in the harbour in a rust ridden town, town, town, town

Now i've got a wife and a young child
Back home in my house
Oh i've got someone
I've got to take care of somehow


4.One Step Closer To Home

When the kid was on the line
And he felt no pain
'cause there was none
He would bend in the wind
Take in anything
Like sniffin' roses
And it was alright
Until he fell
And cut his hand
He just could not understand
He'd run away
Blame pretense
For defence
Or plain innocence

Say that's alright
The harder it fights
I'm one step closer to home
The deeper it bites
I'm one step closer to home
And you can tie my hands
Or whip my back
I can't give in
'til the sky turns black
I may get lost

I'm one step closer to home

Oh yeah he ran
Hitched, rides
Travelled light
Left his bags behind
Said he'd lost them
He said that's o.k.
I get money and a smile
From place to place
And they don't mind
I've had the heads of business men and i just gave them
Right back again
I've got no need
For device, disguise
Or for their compromise

Said that's airight

The tougher it gets
I'm one step closer to home
The more that i sweat
I'm one step closer to home
And you can tie my hands
Or whip my back
I can't give in
'til the sky turns black
I may get lost
I'm one step closer to home

There ain't no need for this at all, at all
Surely you can help me out
Say, i know a lot of people just like you
Plently to live for and nothing to lose
So tear it all down
Smash it all up
Break it all down and then just

Build it up

Build it up
Ah now build it up
Oh you build it up (build it up)
Ah now build it up (build it up)
Ah build it up
Build it up, build it up, build it up, up, up, up

And the tougher it gets
And the more that i sweat
And the harder it fights
And the deeper it bites
I'm one step closer to home
And the harder it fights
I'm one step closer to home
And you can tie my hands
Or whip my back
I can't give in
'til the sky turns black
I may get lost
I'm one step closer to home


5.Shelter

I've been branded
I've been washed up and left for dead
I've been cast out from this world

I'm in exile
I'm stranded on the streets
Ain't got no place left to run

No one wants me anymore, anymore, anymore
Now they hunt me down

C'mon and take me to the shelter

Shelter give me what i want tonight shelter
Shelter take me undercover tonight
Shelter

I've been tortured
I've been raging in the breach
In this wicked world

Persecution
I've been carrying my cross
I've been down there on my knees

No one wants me anymore, anymore, anymore
Now they hunt me down

Come on and take me to the shelter

Shelter give me what i want tonight shelter
Shelter running undercover tonight shelter
Shelter

Come on and take me to the shelter

Shelter give me what i want tonight
(give me your love) shelter
Shelter sleeping on the streets tonight
(give me your love) shelter
Shelter give me what i want tonight
(give me your love) shelter
Shelter give me what i want tonight


6.Rescue Me.

Rides a run away train
To liberate
Tear these bonds assunder
A fugitive
Running from a chain gang
Comfort me
Grant me absolution

Running all my life
Running all my day
Running through the night
Seems like forever
Take me now
I'm so tired
Take me now
This time, forever

Rescue me
I'm on the run like a refugee
Rescue me
Oh come on rescue me

I'm destitute
I'm looking for protection
I want love
And physical asylum
A vagabond
Running from destruction
Cover me
While i seek defection

Running all my life
Running all my day
Running through the night
Seems like forever
Take me now
I'm so tired
Take me now
This time, forever

Rescue me
I'm on the run like a refugee
Rescue me
I believe you can rescue me

Running all my life
Running all my day
Running through the night
Seems like forever
Take me now
I'm so tired
Take me now
This time, forever

Rescue me
On the run like a refugee
Rescue me
Oh come on rescue me
Rescue me
Got to run like a refugee
Rescue me
I believe you can rescue me
Rescue me
Come on, come on, come on, come on


7.Permanence In Change

Where no sun shines there bums refusal to die
In the shadows of heartache my dreams come alive
I've been searching for love to give meaning to life
Oh no, you make me feel real
Oh no, i've got you, you've got me
And that's all we need
A reason to believe

Tonight my love will never die
Tonight i will lay down my life
Wherever we run wherever we go
Tonight i will be yours and you will be mine

In the morning light hope comes on the dawn
A turning point after all these years

In the strength borne of hardship
I knew we'd make it through
So throw back your head babe
These dreams are coming true
Oh no, there's blood sweat and tears now
Oh no, i've found you, you've found me
And that's all we need a reason to believe

Tonight my love will never die
Tonight i will lay down my life
Wherever we run wherever we go
Tonight i will be yours and you will be mine

Tonight we'll go beyond these realms
Of where the sun goes down

We will be together
There is permanence in change
'cause i found you you found me
And now we've found a reason to believe

Tonight our love will never die
Tonight i will lay down my life
Wherever we run wherever we go
Tonight i will be yours and you will be mine
You will be mine
You will be mine
You will be mine

Daylight breaks on the streets of my life
Where no sun shines there bums refusal to die


8.Only Love Can Set Me Free

I know that love exists
I've known it in a kiss
Sometimes in my sleep
I've been searching
For more than these few glimpses
For a love that lasts all eternity

There is a light, a light that never dies
Oh no, see it shine, shining in my sorrow
There is a light, a light that never dies

I'm all alone now
The crowds have all gone home
There is a silence
Silence in my world
I wish that every moment could be peaceful
But i guess that's something
I can only pray for

There is a light, a light that never dies
Oh no, see it shine, shining in my sorrow
There is a light, a light in my desire (see it shine)
See it shining, shining for tomorrow

Only love can give me an answer (only love)
Oh i know that love can heal (only love)
From the dust a new hope rises up
Only love can set me, set me free

This world is crashing down
In oh so many ways
I get so scared
Scared and so alone
Life i desire
But what is life without love
You say that's nothing
To me it's everything

There is a light, a light that never dies
Oh no, see it shine, shining in my sorrow
There is a light, a light in my desire (see it shine)
See it shining, shining for tomorrow

Only love can give me an answer (only love)
Oh i know that love can heal (only love)
From the dust a new hope rises up
Only love can set me, set me free

I need a friend someone to turn to
Someone to turn to in my hour of need (someone)
Someone to give me an answer (someone)
Someone to give me the love i need

Only love can give me the answer (only love)
Oh i know that love can heal (only love)
From the dust a new hope rises up
Only love can set me, set me free

Set me free

Only love can give me the answer (only love)
Only love can set me free


9.Eye Of The Hurricane

A lone voice cries on the hillside
The winds from the north blow the sea to the shore
I walk away in the fateful moonlight

Love forsaken man, love forsaken land
For god's sake don't look back
Into the crucifix night
The storm of a cross
I live to love again and again
All my life

Oh eye of the hurricane
I walk away in the wind and the rain
Into the eye of the hurricane
Face to face

The view from the hill looks bleak from where i stand
The waters are come in unto my soul
I can't cry no more my eyes are bone dry sore
There's a river of tears flowing down to the sea

I'm a desolate soul on a desolate shore
Destined to walk alone
Into the crucifix night
The storm of a cross
I live to love again and again
All my life

Oh eye of the hurricane
I walk away in the wind and the rain
Into the eye of the hurricane
Face to face

Hurricane when will i see you again?
Hurricane when will i see you again?
Will i see you again?
Will i see you again?

I'm a desolate soul on a desolate shore
Destined to walk alone
Into the crucifix night
The storm of a cross
I live to love again and again
All my life

Oh eye of the hurricane
I walk away in the wind and the rain
Into the eye of the hurricane
Of my life

Oh eye of the hurricane
I walk away in the wind and the rain
Into the eye of the hurricane
Face to face

Hurricane
Hurricane
