18th July Songtext

von Runrig

It was a summer sun, all the leaves were greening
Within one day it all had changed
On the evening news, all the skies were falling
Your single light, a global fuse

Can we ever stop believing in the night behind the blue
On the day when love was leaving, all that's left belonged to you

When it's your flesh and blood, well that takes some bleeding
And is's shed on the road you choose
The needle and the gun - guns and needles
Life is all you have to lose

Can we ever stop believing in the night behind the blue
On the day when love was leaving, all that's left belonged to you
Can we ever stop believing on the spiral in the dark
When strangers bond together in the glue of broken hearts

And you will remember, the laughing of a child
And all the stars that were shining
Dying in their prime

Can we ever stop believing in the night behind the blue
On the day when love was leaving, all that's left belonged to you
Can we ever stop believing on the spiral in the dark
When strangers bond together in the glue of broken hearts

Can we ever stop believing on the spiral in the dark
When strangers bond together in the glue of broken hearts

The glue of broken hearts
