letra de midnight walk in the ruins - peter himmelman

[verse 1]
i took a midnight walk in the ruins, guess i was looking for your face
i felt a chill in the air i knew then i was in the right place
turned over a bluestone just to see what it was hiding
out crawled a black snake, and it laughed as the moon when gliding
walked through a burned-out doorway into a room with a melted chandelier
thought i heard your voice, and i called out, “is anybody here?”
but all i got was silence until the wind whipped up again outside
i knew then that only something mortal could be brave enough to die

[chorus]
how come you don’t answer when i call you
you won’t even part your lips to speak my name
how come you don’t answer when i call you
don’t you know that we’re both to blame?

[verse 2]
six black crows on a telephone wire, guess they were listening for your voice
well, you still don’t understand it do you, baby, you and i, we had no choice
well, the game it was clearly over, we had only to cash in our chips
well, i know your heart concurs with mine, but i guess i wanna hear it from your lips
well, it’s 2 a.m., and the fog’s rolled in, and the moonlight has been obscured
to have gone on any longer would have been most absurd
well, my boots are covered by the morning dew, but my feet are still warm and dry
well, i wish i could say that for my cheeks now, ’cause they’re damp with these tears, i cry oh yeah
[chorus]
how come you don’t answer when i call you
you won’t even part your lips to speak my name
how come you don’t answer when i call you
don’t you know that we’re both to blame?

[verse 3]
i can see the frame of a house with its roof blown off, passive victim of a violent storm
there’s a grey cat with sapphire eyes lookin’ for a place that’s warm
i can see the headlights of a pickup truck cutting like a sword through the mist
but i’m searching my mind, to remember the first time that we kissed
everything is faded now like the dye from my old blue jeans
well, i’ve let go of our past, and only you know what that means
well, they say it’s all a form of surrender i like to think of it as change
but the evolution is awkward, and this whole d-mn world seems so strange

[chorus]
how come you don’t answer when i call you
you won’t even part your lips to speak my name
how come you don’t answer when i call you
don’t you know that we’re both to blame?
