Testo Dead Man Walking - Quill
Testo della canzone Dead Man Walking (Quill), tratta dall'album Riding Rainbows
The city's waking, half-moon in the sky
The dream was over, he knew that she would cry
He had to leave her before it was too late
If they found out, he was certain of his fate
Young and pretty, he could give her 50 years
She thought she loved him, blinded in her fears
A wife at home and a family growing fast
His stolen romance was never meant to last
Now she's done all the talking
And he's a dead man walking
Word's on the street
And the whole town is talking
One stolen kiss
One more bullet to this
He's a dead man
A dead man walking
Dark clouds gathered, the locusts swarm
This was only the calm before the storm
He picked the rose, she picked the thorn
He cursed the day, the day that he was born
The sound of sirens, hard and shrill
The hunt was on, they were out for the kill
The judge's daughter, no rules applied
The chance to plead, nowhere to hide
Now she's done all the talking
And he's a dead man walking
Word's on the street
And the whole town is talking
One stolen kiss
One more bullet to this
He's a dead man
Tossed a coin, watched it fall
He knows his back's against the wall
There's no going back, nowhere to turn
No time to dream, too late to learn
Each moment spent a nagging on his shoulder
His future's bleak but still love smolders
His days now clinch 'tis regret for me
