The Gentle Roar - Niki & The Dove

I hear the trains coming and they echo in the tunnel

Like a gentle roar, a roar of the underground

Is it what it sounds like?

The innocent dark and the sweet talk of the stone

And I was afraid of you but now I’ve gotten used to you

Now you’re ringing a peal in my body, one I didn’t know of before

Is it the two life lines in our face that I follow with my fingers?

Did she ever laugh that much?

Did she ever laugh that much?

Born on a Friday, keys on the table, oh it’s real danger

Born on a Friday (make a cross on your doorstep)

Keys on the table (make a cross on your doorstep)

Oh it’s real danger (danger)

And I was told to look away when I saw a raven (bad luck)

And to spit three times when a cat crossed the street

(I was told to be afraid of) so many things

Now I’m waking the witch and I move like a cat and if I dare to look her in the eye,

Would she comfort me?

Would she comfort me?

Born on a Friday (make a cross on your doorstep)

Keys on the table, oh it’s real danger

Born on a Friday (make a cross on your doorstep)

Keys on the table (make a cross on your doorstep)

Oh it’s real danger (danger danger danger)

Born on a Friday (make a cross on your doorstep)

Keys on the table (make a cross on your doorstep)

Born on a Friday (make a cross on your doorstep)

Keys on the table (make a cross on your doorstep)

I hear the trains coming and they echo in the tunnel

Like a gentle roar, a roar of the underground

I hear the trains coming and they echo in the tunnel

Like a gentle roar, a roar of the underground

Is it what it sounds like?

The innocent dark and the sweet talk of the stone

Is it what it sounds like?

The innocent dark and the sweet talk of the stone
