There was a banquet of believers when we walked into the room
December days of Christmas felt like days in June
And there were morning lights, and sunrise chimes echoed all around
Now's the time for weary minds, the moon is northern bound

And you know I'm going back, going back today
Back to where I came from And you know I'm going back,
going back to stay
To the alleys where pearls of passion came my way

Well there's a promise in the twilight, it's so innocent and wild
Two hearts that break the silence, you can hear a distant cry
And there's emptiness and loneliness, it's more or less the same
Well let's run between the raindrops, babe,
and catch the midnight train

And you know I'm going back, going back today
Back to where I came from And you know I'm going back,
going back to stay To the alleys where pearls of passion came my way

And you know I'm going back, going back today
Back to where I came from And you know I'm going back,
going back to stay To the alleys where pearls of passion came my way

And you know I'm going back, going back today
Back to where I came from And you know I'm going back,
going back to stay To the alleys where pearls of passion came my way
Came my way
