The Lover's Face - The Proclaimers

She’s shackled to the night

Bonded to a darker place

Searching for the lover’s face

That haunts her

Listening to the sounds

Of the city as it moves around

Hoping that on sacred ground

She’ll find him

And the lover who lurks in the shadows

Cut this hole through her soul

So the children she’s leaving tomorrow

Can never be told

Yes, this lover who lurks in the shadows

Cut this hole through her soul

And the children she’s leaving tomorrow

Can never be told

She’s shackled to the night

Bonded to a darker place

Searching for the lover’s face

That haunts her

Searching for the lover’s face

That haunts her
