Rumours of Glory (1981) Bruce Cockburn

[Intro]
Hey!

[Verse 1]
Above the dark town
After the sun's gone down
Two vapour trails cross the sky
Catching the day's last slow goodbye
Black skyline looks rich as velvet
Something is shining
Like gold but better

[Refrain]
Rumours of glory

[Verse 2]
Smiles mixed with curses
The crowd disperses
About whom no details are known
Each one alone yet not alone
Behind the pain / fear
Etched on the faces
Something is shining
Like gold but better

[Refrain]
Rumours of glory, yeah
Rumours of glory, all right!
