Erasure - Chorus Lyrics

Go ahead with your dreaming
For what it's worth or you'll be stricken-bound kicking up dirt
For when it's dark, you never know what the night will bring

Go ahead with your scheming
And shop at home, you'll find treasure while cooking 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 dreaming
For what it's worth or you'll be stricken-bound kicking up dirt
For when it's dark, you never know what the night will bring

Go ahead with your scheming
And shop at home, you'll find treasure while cooking 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 where no one's cheating

The sunlight rising over the horizon
Just a distant memory
The dawn chorus (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
