Change your face

Change your name

Rip the roots that you laid down

Rip the roots that you laid down

I'll keep your pain

Close company now

Close company now
[Chorus]

Lying wide awake

In a different house

With different arms around you now

On a different street

On the same old road

That the night comes down

Love'll burn a hole

Through your human doubt

And free your heart from the stone

Free your heart from the stone

And the stone may roll

But it'll search you out
F
No matter where you go

It'll find you, oh

Lying wide awake

In a different house
C/G G
With different arms around you now
Am
On a different street

In a different town

On the same old road
F
That the night comes down

On the same old road
F
That the night comes down
C/G
That the night comes down
