Lyrics

THE TUNNEL OF LOVE

How many scrapes does it take to salvation
How many nights with a file and the light in his eyes?
Over pipes, through the endless foundations…
A swing to the left and then down half a mile.
He lives by the smile that he sees on your picture.
So perfectly hides that great hole in the wall..

And he prays in the day,
he’s polite to the wardens.
He seems unimportant, they leave him to call
On a force they don’t feel
On a force that is higher.
While he’s digging right down the depths of his soul.
Of a hole that will stretch and will lead him to freedom.
He’ll ride with the moles
and he will not forget….

That there’s joy on the surface.
There’s life on the Moon.
And The Sun’s there to worship.
He’ll get back to you…..

There’s joy high above
There is life on the moon.
Through this Tunnel of Love
He will get back to you…
