Simple Minds

No, don't walk away
I need you to stay with me tonight

Come on, what have you heard?
How desperate the word creeping me tonight

Like Christians and the lions
We'll lay down in the sand
While neon city cowboys
Drift across our land
In their caravans

Why and what can we learn?
Narcissus returns the child in me tonight

Like Muslems in the car wash
Like locators in our hands
The neon city cowboys
Never give our land
With no plans

Turn don't walk away
Stay with me tonight

Stay with me
