Rue St. Jean Lyrics

Like Custer on the cliffs

Like the general at Waterloo

Stuck between the world coming at you

And the world as you want it to be

There's doubt in desire

There's shadows in the things I know

But all these miles I've travelled

Have etched my longing in the snow

'Cause we walked down the rue Saint Jean

And my dream flowing like wine

Give me your cup

Let me fill it up

Please don't turn

Don't turn away

The streets hold a hard hand

The the soft palm of a soul

The truth's as hard as ice

When you know your wisdoms full of holes

So each to their lives

To their things to fulfill

I still think of you often

I think I always will

'Cause we walked down the rue Saint Jean

And my dream flowing like wine

Give me your cup

Let me fill it up

Please don't turn

Don't turn away

'Cause the night

Is too still

Oh come wake me up

'Cause the night

Is too still

Oh come wake me up

'Cause we walked

Down the rue Saint Jean

And my dream

Flowing like wine

Give me your cup

Let me fill it up

Please don't turn

Don't turn away
