Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds - The Dying Of The Light Lyrics

I keep on running but I can't get to the mountain
behind lie the years that I mis-spent
and I've been sinking like a flower in the fountain
when all the love I'm gonna need is Heaven sent

Gonna try my best to get there
But I can't afford the bus fare
and the storm that's rolling over
man, it makes me wanna cry

and I was told
the streets were paved with gold
and there'd be no time for getting old when we were young
and it's allright
if you dance with me tonight
we'll fight the dying of the light and we'll catch the sun

Woke up sleeping on a train that was bound for no-where
The echos that I could hear were all my own
The world had turned and I'd become a stranger
Got tired of watching all the flowers turn to stone

Gonna try my best to get there
But I can't afford the bus fare
and the storm that's rolling over
man, it makes me wanna cry

Feel the cold against my shoulder
when it comes on in the winter
and it seems to last forever
and it makes me wanna
it makes me wanna cry

I was told
the streets were paved with gold
and there'd be no time
for getting old when we were young
and it's allright
if you dance with me tonight
we'll fight the dying of the light and we'll catch the sun

Ouh Ouhuh Ouh

Gonna try my best to get there
But I can't afford the bus fare
and the storm that's rolling over
man, it makes me wanna cry

When I was told
the streets were paved with gold
and there'd be no time for getting old when we were young
and it's allright
if you dance with me tonight
we'll fight the dying of the light and we'll catch the sun

Feel the cold against my shoulder
when it comes on in the winter
man, it makes me wanna cry

feel the cold against my shoulder
and it seems to last forever

and it makes me wanna
it makes me wanna cry

mmm mmm
