The Germans Are Out Today Lyrics - Deacon Blue

Its dark in the car 

we're deep in the garden of england 

its dark in the car 

they're all asleep but you and me 

there's time to talk 

we're only on holiday 

and I think you said this to me 

The germans are out today 

they won the war you know 

I didn't look for salvation 

but,boy I found it there 

in and RAF bunkhouse 

I borrowed a bible 

the fellow who owned it 

wanted it shared 

Outside a locked door 

in front of a dusty store 

outside a locked door 

we talked through the drunken singing in the rain 

there's no time talk 

not while we're standing here 

but even now I thought I heard you say 

Hey it don't last forever 

hey were we there together 

its so dark in this prism life 

take back the years 

hold back the tears 

on all of these days 

that might not have been there at all
