From: "Lights on Barkhouse"
Lights On Barkhouse
I'm wasting away
On a cold and dreary dull November day
My money's all spent
Or I'd gather up my bags and take a train from where I went
I never realised
The truth in what they'd said
The lights come on on Barkhouse
And the wind is setting in
Only there could I shake this mood I'm in
It's making me sad
Looking back on friends I used to have
Dressing so smart
Throwing back our heads and laughing wildly at the dark
I never realised
The truth was in my heart
The lights come on on Barkhouse
And the wind is setting in
Only there could I shake this mood I'm in
Was it pride on its own
The courage that it took to live alone
It didn't last long
All the strength it took to leave is calling me back home
I never realised
How fond of it I'd grown
The trees will shake
The lights on Barkhouse break into my misery
This loneliness is the price for being free
Only there could I shake this mood and break this
misery
And find the strength to walk away again
