Dire Straits lyrics Telegraph Road lyrics A long time ago came a man on a track walking thirty miles with a pack on his back and he put down his load where he thought it was the best made a home in the wilderness he built a cabin and a winter store and he ploughed up the ground by the cold lake shore and the other travellers came riding down the track and they never went further, no, they never went back then came the churches then came the schools then came the lawyers then came the rules then came the trains and the trucks with their loads and the dirty old track was the telegraph road Then came the mines - then came the ore then there was the hard times then there was a war telegraph sang a song about the world outside telegraph road got so deep and so wide like a rolling river. . . And my radio says tonight it's gonna freeze people driving home from the factories there's six lanes of traffic three lanes moving slow. . . I used to like to go to work but they shut it down I got a right to go to work but there's no work here to be found yes and they say we're gonna have to pay what's owed we're gonna have to reap from some seed that's been sowed and the birds up on the wires and the telegraph poles they can always fly away from this rain and this cold you can hear them singing out their telegraph code all the way down the telegraph road You know I'd sooner forget but I remember those nights when life was just a bet on a race between the lights you had your head on my shoulder you had your hand in my hair now you act a little colder like you don't seem to care but believe in me baby and I'll take you away from out of this darkness and into the day from these rivers of headlights these rivers of rain from the anger that lives on the streets with these names 'cos I've run every red light on memory lane I've seen desperation explode into flames and I don't want to see it again. . . From all of these signs saying sorry but we're closed all the way down the telegraph road Other Dire Straits lyrics: Twisting By The Pool lyrics So Far Away lyrics Calling Elvis lyrics On Every Street lyrics Your Latest Trick lyrics When It Comes To You lyrics Fade To Black lyrics The Bug lyrics Heavy Fuel lyrics You And Your Friend lyrics Iron Hand lyrics Ticket To Heaven lyrics My Parties lyrics The Planet Of New Orleans lyrics How Long lyrics Water Of Love lyrics Setting Me Up lyrics Six Blade Knife lyrics Southbound Again lyrics In The Gallery lyrics Wild West End lyrics Lions lyrics Once Upon A Time In The West lyrics News lyrics Communique lyrics Lady Writer lyrics Angel Of Mercy lyrics Portobello Belle lyrics Sngle Handed Sailor lyrics Follow Me Home lyrics Tunnel Of Love lyrics Skateaway lyrics Expresso Love lyrics Hand In Hand lyrics Solid Rock lyrics Les Boys lyrics Industrial Disease lyrics Love Over Gold lyrics It Never Rains lyrics Sultans Of Swing lyrics Down To The Waterline lyrics Portobello Belle (Live) lyrics Romeo And Juliet lyrics Where Do You Think You're Going? lyrics Walk Of Life lyrics Private Investigations lyrics Money For Nothing lyrics Brothers In Arms lyrics |
