Travelling Man - Simple Minds

He lights of the motel shine on to me

This is the land of the brave, sad and the lonely

The last ride’s

Coming to me I can feel it

A new life

Screaming out and I can’t miss it

Travelling man

Travelling man

You get away if you can

My body’s shaking, my body’s tired

Hookers to the left of me, killers on the inside

The last train

Left this station long ago

The headlights

Shine like diamonds in the snow

Like a travelling man

I’m a travelling man

Run away if you can

Cruel world keeps turning I’m dead on my feet

From the blue icy mountains to white city heat

Factory fire burns like a phoenix tonight

Spread your wings come on darling

And your eyes

Search for me but I can’t see them

And your sweet mouth

It speaks to me but I can’t hear it

And your — your sweet smile

Two thousand miles for your warm kisses

And your sweet child

I got one last chance and I can’t miss it

No no no no

Travelling man

Like a travelling man

Well I’m a travelling man
