lyrics

The world is dark but pretends to be light
Bless all the children who’ll never dream at night
The shadows are the people and the buildings are all jails
You can sleep my little baby with the spiders and the snails


You just can’t turn it off
No you just can’t turn it off
No you just can’t turn it off
When the wind is whistling your name


Ducks are out on the pond but the pond is all dried out
Well the rain won’t stop falling and so they blamed it on the drought
The church is closed with roof repairs and the roads are blocked with works
Well the shadows are the creatures where under light they lurk


You just can’t turn it off
No you just can’t turn it off
No you just can’t turn it off
When the wind is whistling your name


The train is always late because it’s heading the other way
Well there’s nowhere left to go and so you may as well stay
The bars and clubs are closed and the street light’s gonna switch
Well you can make it back in time to sleep down in the ditch


You just can’t turn it off
No you just can’t turn it off
No you just can’t turn it off
When the wind is whistling your name


You can only climb down ladders or get a raise from a snake
Well slam your foot down on the gas cos there isn’t any brakes
Well the clouds they are just ghosts and the rain is angel tears
You can wrap your love up warm in a blanket full of fears


You just can’t turn it off
No you just can’t turn it off
No you just can’t turn it off
When the wind is whistling your name
When the wind is whistling your name
When the wind is whistling your name
