Barricades Songtext
von Editors

How long could you wait for someone you love?
Just looking for the tunnels of light coming down from above
I was waiting by the phone
The moment you called, the moment you caved
Just tell me all your secrets and lies, your barricades

When it gets dark, streaking the youth
Hold me back from falling
Through tunnels of light emitted from you
I was waiting by the phone
The moment you called, the moment you caved
Where would I be without your secrets and lies, your barricades

Don′t run away, don't run away, don′t run away, don't run away
Just barricade now
Don't run away, don′t run away, don′t run away, don't run away
Just barricade now


A memory of you plucked from the pool
Just tell me have I met you before
Did we play the fool
Serenade me while I sleep
Ripple the walls, keep us out of sight
My memory′s playing tricks and games
The madness you loved, the tunnels of light

Don't run away, don′t run away, don't run away, don′t run away
Just barricade now
Don't run away, don't run away, don′t run away, don′t run away
Just barricade now
Don't run away, don′t run away, don't run away, don′t run away
Just barricade now
Don't run away, don′t run away, don't run away, don't run away
Just barricade now

Don′t run away now
Just barricade now
Don′t run away, don't run away, don′t run away, don't run away
Just barricade now, don′t run away now, don't run away now
Don′t run away, don't run away, don't run away, don′t run away
Just barricade now
Don′t run away, don't run away, don′t run away, don't run away
Just barricade now, don′t run away now, don't run away now
Don′t run away, don't run away, don't run away, don′t run away
Just barricade now


How long could you wait for someone you love?
Just looking for the tunnels of light coming down from above
