Richard Lloyd - Downline Lyrics

(Lloyd)

Raindrops, keep falling through my fingers
They won't stop, got me feeling like a stranger
Ruby jane, i've been rolling though your hurricane
Erupting in a shower of feelings, baby that you can't explain
I'll be waiting downline, yes and feeling no pain
I'll be standing in diamonds, where we promised to meet

Ruby jane, i've seen you at the picture show
And you lay yourself down on the table, you got no place left to go
You're watching silhouettes, as they roll across your empty floor
You've had your fill of apples and oranges, but they're calling you back for more
I'll be waiting downline, yes and feeling no pain
I'll be standing in diamonds, where we promised to meet

We were born in a strange world, where all the flags remain unfurled
And the trees they bend in the wind, but still you won't change
I can see you're a strange girl,
With eyes of steel and a cold hold on my heart,
And you're bending the rules, but love you find you won't win
Yeah you'll find out in the end

Tragedy, i hear you calling her by name
And you think she is a friend of yours, but she's the one you'll never tame
I'll be waiting downline etc...
