A House Needs A Roof
by Tony Banks
Album:
BankstatementGenre:
unknown
Wandering in a daze
Through a cold mechanical maze
I am lost and confused
I am always the loser
You tell me there's a place
Where I can be alive
Is it near is it far is it somewhere between
This land you say exists that I've never seen
Call me please talk to me tell me the truth
I need to believe like a house needs a roof
Is it strange is it wonderful I need to know
Do you have a picture that you can show
The minute to capture the moment has come
The minute to capture the moment has come
It's easy to believe
But less easy to imagine
I've grown so used to not coping
Waiting eternally hoping
Wishes come and go
But this one will stay I know
Could the time for adventure be
Just around the corner
Is it near is it far is it somewhere between
The land you say exists that I've never seen
Call me please talk to me tell me the truth
I need to believe like a house needs a roof
Is it strange is it wonderful I need to know
Do you have a picture that you can show
The minute to capture the moment has come
The minute to capture the moment has come
I wonder if it's true
Do I put my faith in you
Do I risk one more failure
To add to this tale
Or do I turn my back
And slowly walk away
Please tell me if you know
Is it near is it far is it somewhere between
The land you say exists that I've never seen
Call me please talk to me tell me the truth
I need to believe like a house needs a roof
Is it strange is it wonderful I need to know
Do you have a picture that you can show
The minute to capture the moment has come
The minute to capture the moment has come
