Jacques brel, jouannest, eric blau, mort shuman<br><br>They hold each others hands<br>They walk without a sound<br>Down forgotten streets<br>Their shadows kiss the ground<br>Their footsteps<br>Sing a song<br>Tat's ended before it's begun<br>They walk without a sound<br>The desperate ones<br><br>Just like the tiptoe moth<br>That dance before the flame<br>They burn their hearts so much<br>That death is just a name<br>And if love calls again<br>So foolishly they run, they run, they run<br>They run, they run, they run, they run<br>They run without a sound<br>The desperate ones<br><br>I know the road tey're on<br>I've walked their crooked mile<br>A hundred times or more<br>I drank their cup of bile<br>They watch their dreams go down<br>Be hind the settin sun<br>Yeh, yeh, yeh, they walk without a sound<br>The desperate ones<br><br>Le he who threw the stone at them<br>Stand up and take a bow<br>He knows the verb to love<br>Beu he'll never, never, never know how<br>On the bridge of nevermore<br>They disappear one by one<br>Disappear without a sound<br>The desperate ones<br><br>And underneath the bridge<br>The water's sweet and deep<br>This is their journey's end<br>The land of endless sleep<br>They cry to us for help<br>We think it's all in fun,<br>They cry, they cry, they cry, they cry<br>Without a sound<br>They disappear without a sound<br>They walk without a sound without a sound<br>Disappear without a sound<br>Cry without a sound<br>Yai, yaj, yaj, yaj, yaj, yaj, yaj<br>The desperate ones
