Mercy Street Lyrics - Singles - Richard Shindell

Looking down on empty streets, all she can see 

are the dreams all made solid 

are the dreams all made real 

all of the buildings, all of those cars 

were once just a dream 

in somebody's head 

she pictures the broken glass, she pictures the steam 

she pictures a soul 

with no leak at the seam 

lets take the boat out 

wait until darkness 

let's take the boat out 

wait until darkness comes 

nowhere in the corridors of pale green and grey 

nowhere in the suburbs 

in the cold light of day

there in the midst of it so alive and alone 

words support like bone 

dreaming of mercy st. 

wear your inside out 

dreaming of mercy 

in your daddy('s arms again 

dreaming of mercy st. 

'swear they moved that sign 

dreaming of mercy 

in your daddy's arms 

pulling out the papers from the drawers that slide smooth 

tugging at the darkness, word upon word 

confessing all the secret things in the warm velvet box 

to the priest-he's the doctor 

he can handle the shocks 

dreaming of the tenderness-the tremble in the hips 

of kissing Mary's lips

dreaming of mercy st.

'swear they moved that sign 

looking for mercy 

in your daddy's arms 

mercy, mercy, looking for mercy 

mercy, mercy, looking for mercy 

Anne, with her father is out in the boat 

riding the water 

riding the waves on the sea
