Celtic Ballad Lyrics by The Saints

All Fools Day

1986

[Verse 1]
Every day I am going somewhere
Asking someone to show me the way
Everywhere I look, I see people
Empty vessels that have lost their way
[Verse 2]
Crowded streets with a reek of madness
Grey-coloured sadness rain don't wash away
Drunken memories lie in the gutter
With brown paper bags and the junk from the night
[Verse 3]
Faded dreams dressed in frocks of velvet
With painted faces in short decay
Leather mothеrs of future children
Are bеaten senseless by the light of day
[Refrain]
Why, why does there have to be all this insanity?
And why, why do I feel like it's following me?
[Verse 4]
Some will die in the breath of me singing
And some will kill on their way to the top
And I know there is justice somewhere
And it asks someone, to show it the way
[Refrain]
Why, why does there have to be all this insanity?
And why, why do I feel like it's following me?
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 5]
Every day I am going somewhere
Asking someone to show me the way
Everywhere I look, I see people
Empty vessels that have lost their way
