Town Without Pity lyrics


Eddi Reader


When youre young and so in love and free
And bewildered by the world you see
Why do people hurt you so
Only those in love would know
What a town without pity can do
When we stop to gaze upon a star
People talk about how mad we are
Ours is such an evil age
Were like flowers in a cage
What a town without pity can do
Yeah, we have problems, many problems
We need an understanding heart
Why dont they help us, try to help us
Before this grey and granite planet falls apart
Take these eager lips and hold me fast
Im afraid this kind of joy cant last
How can we keep love alive
How can anything survive
When these little minds tear you in two
What a town without pity can do
Instrumental section
How we can we keep love alive
How can anything survive
When these little minds tear you in two
What a town without pity can do
No it isnt very pretty
What a town without pity...pause can do
