Algiers - The Afghan Whigs

Flamed the time when nearly changed

Still I was a slave waiting to be saved

Dream the body sleeps but I

Am not to proud to roll

On the back streets

So so simple when you know

You know this when it's time to go

Strange the sooner you leave behind

Lonely as you sold paradise

Scream the body leaves the bone

To sit upon the throne

A better waits for life

Dream dream your sins away

Sing your dreams away

Your holding back still holding back Algier

Say you love me tonight

Save you love for me tonight

And I feel you now

I lie awake on the way of love

And I feel

But I

Heavenly daemons outside my window

Sent here to see me outside this world

I call the shadow you call the season

That 's Algiers
