Old Timbuktu Lyrics

Coldness while you're not here

A harbour of fear

I'm crawling the walls

I'm convicted, show classic signs

Losing my mind

You're a cure to it all

Old Timbuktu

The town you send me to

But you could make this one fine

Lock up, little light flows

From someone we know

May change your mind

A prisoner, I scratch away days

Bars in my way

I'm not hard to find

Old Timbuktu

The town you send me to

But you could make this one fine

Old Timbuktu

The town you send me to

But you could make this one fine

Old Timbuktu

The town you send me to

But you could make this one fine

Why, oh why, oh why do I linger?

Why, oh why, oh why do I wait?

Why, oh why, oh why

When I know freedom is she

My heart's a lock up cell

I've thrown away the key

Too long you've kept me here

You never appear

So sad are my dreams

Too long awaiting release

Can't find no peace

Endless this seems

Old Timbuktu

The town you send me to

But you could make this one fine

But you could make this one fine

Old Timbuktu

The town you send me to

But you could make this one fine
