Lyrics for Song: 5:06 Am (Every Strangers Eyes)
Lyrics for Album: The Pros And Cons Of Hitch Hiking [1984]
Waitress: "Hello...you wanna cup of coffee?"
Customers: "Heh, turn that fucking juke box down
You want to turn down that juke box...
loud in here"
Waitress: "I'm sorry, would you like a cup of coffee?
Ok, you take cream and sugar?"
In truck stops and hamburger joints
In Cadillac limousines
In the company of has-beens
And bent-backs and sleeping forms
On pavement steps
In libraries and railway stations
In books and banks
In the pages of history
In suicidal cavalry attacks
I recognize
Myself in every stranger's eyes
And in wheelchairs by monuments
Under tube trains and computer accidents
In council cars and county courts
At Easter fairs and sea side resorts
In drawing rooms and city morgues
In award winning photographs
Of life rafts in the China seas
In transit camps under arc lamps
On unloading ramps
In faces blurred by rubber stamps
I recognize
Myself in every strangers's eyes
And now from where I stand
Upon this hill I plundered from the pool
I look around, I search the skies
I shade my eyes, so nearly blind
And I see signs of half remembered days
I hear bells that chime in strange familiar ways
I recognize
The hope you kindle in your eyes
It's oh so easy now
As we lie here in the dark
Nothing interferes it's obvious
How to beat the tears
That threaten to snuff out
The spark of our love
