No Woman Around
In my dream you were stronger than ever
built ten feet tall
and tougher than a Stacey's leather
and in this dream you were stronger
than real life
and in this dream you turned him
down
when the wheel cogs choked to kick
up blood -
and spit out everything you ever
wanted,
baby leave that man
turn him down
leave that man
but some cold nights
are colder than others
and you can lose your small body
in the hot skin of another
this lifeboats leaving soon, girl,
when I say I' gone, I'm gone and I
mean forever
and when the spirit of temptation
comes to take you, girl,
I know it's never easy,
baby leave that man
turn him down
leave that man
you are everything to me, girl
you are all god's charity
you are everything good in my life
and if I should lose my balance
you keep me down with gravity
now everything's upside down
this lifeboats leaving soon, girl,
when I say I'm gone I mean forever
all things I did, and all the things we
did together
baby leave that man...

With thanks that their light didn't die
Light one candle for the pain they endured
When their right to exist was denied
Light one candle for the terrible sacrifice
Justice and freedom demand
But light one candle for the wisdom to know
When the peacemaker's time is at hand
chorus:
Don't let the light go out!
It's lasted for so many years!
Don't let the light go out!
Let it shine through our love and our tears.
Light one candle for the strength that we need
To never become our own foe
And light one
