The Flickering Wall Lyrics - Echo & The Bunnymen

In my world in my little world 

Life lies upon the floor 

The wind blows in and out again 

Through windows and through doors 

And it's there I'll look and it's there I'll find 

What it was I started after 

When I mistook what I had in mind 

For something made to matter 

I heard the footsteps in the street 

I saw the lights on the flickering wall 

I moved my lips but I couldn't speak 

Choked on the wonder of it all 

Choked on the wonder of it all 

In my dreams recurring dreams 

But I was never there 

Life is still so invisible 

Just needing to be where 

With any luck I might just find 

What it was I started after 

When I undertook what I had in mind 

When everything mattered 

When I saw the gods up in the sky 

I saw the lights on the flickering wall 

I saw the world through hazel eyes 

And choked on the wonder of it all 

Choked on the wonder of it all 

I heard the footsteps in the street 

I saw the lights on the flickering wall 

I moved my lips but I couldn't speak 

Choked on the wonder of it all 

When I saw the gods up in the sky 

I saw the lights on the flickering wall 

I saw the world through hazel eyes 

And choked on the wonder of it all 

Choked on the wonder of it all 

Choked on the wonder 

Choked on the wonder 

Choked on the wonder of it all
