Kim Carnes - Brass and Batons
Take heart the pages turning fastI'll be waiting here in the hourglass
There's a fire in the heartland
There is a dream on every door
When the past is a brass band
Then you know what you're shooting for
Brass and batons they fade away
They're only moments in the haze
Brass and batons like magic wands
You wave them once and they're gone
And the river keeps changin'
Johnny works harder every day
Got an eye on the good life
Fortune's just a day away
Sundial with a great hand
Sweeping dust across the floor
Puts the strain on a sane man
Til he knows what he's looking for
Brass and batons they fade away
They're only moments in the haze
Brass and batons like magic wands
You wave them once and they're gone
New moon in the evening
Playing tricks on my mind
I swear I felt you heavy breathing
On my neck a thousand times
So let's play it like we used to
Play it sweet and then
I'll meet you in the spotlight
When it comes 'round again
Brass and batons they fade away
They're only moments in the haze
Brass and batons like magic wands
You wave them once and they're gone
And their gone
