This Changing Light Lyrics - Singles - Deacon Blue

I wrote this once before 

Long before the summer 

You were then a student 

And we were dark as angels 

We were in the east 

Working to the west 

The west was looking south 

And the south she had no pity 

But last night I dreamed 

And you were always 

In it 

There were 

Hopes and plans and schemes 

And the town was full of winners 

Oh brother 

Oh sister 

This changing light 

Has lighted things so 

Differently 

Has lighted things so 

Differently 

I wrote this once before 

And we were all then working 

We thought we`d stop the flow 

Of a cruel and heartless woman 

If I`d known this then 

What would these wings have done 

They`d have beat and flapped and flown 

And not done and not done 

But last night I dreamed 

And you were always 

In it 

There were 

Hopes and plans and schemes 

And the town was full of winners 

Oh brother 

Oh sister 

This changing light 

Has lighted things so 

Differently 

Has lighted things so 

Differently 

Oh brother 

Oh sister 

This changing light 

Oh brother 

Oh sister 

This changing light 

Oh brother 

Oh sister 

This changing light 

Has lighted things so 

Differently 

Lighted things so 

Differently 

So differently 

I wrote it on my hand 

I kept it in the dark 

I never ran it through my hair 

I stuffed it in my pocket 

I wrote this on a journey 

All the way from Spain 

Where our fellows fought 

And never came back again 

To this changing light 

To this changing light 

Dark dark 

Changing light 

Dark dark dark dark 

Light
