Verse

 All the towers of ivory are crumbling

 And the swallows have sharpened their beaks

 This is the time of our great undoing

 This is the time that I'll come running

Chorus

 Straight to you

 For I am captured

 Straight to you

 For I am captured

  One more time

Instrumental

Verse

 The light in our window is fading

 The candle gutters on the ledge

 Well now sorrow, it comes a-stealing

 And I'll cry, girl, but I'll come a-running

Chorus

 Straight to you

 For I am captured

 Straight to you

 For I am captured

Once again –

Verse

 Gone are the days of rainbows

 Gone are the nights of swinging from the stars

 For the sea will swallow up the mountains

 And the sky will throw thunder-bolts and sparks

Chorus

 Straight at you

 But I'll come a-running

 Straight to you

 But I'll come a-running

One more time

Instrumental

Verse

 Heaven has denied us it's kingdom

 And the saints are drunk howling at the moon

 And the chariots of angels are colliding

 Well, I'll run, babe, but I'll come running

Chorus

 Straight to you

 For I am captured

 Straight to you

 For I am captured

  One more time
