Well it’s a lonely road that you have chosen
Morning comes and you don’t want to know me anymore
And it’s a long time since your heart was frozen
Morning comes and you don’t want to know me anymore

For a moment your eyes open and you know
All the things I ever wanted you to know
I don’t know you and I don’t want to
Till the moment your eyes open and you know

That it’s a lonely place that you have run to
Morning comes and you don’t want to know me anymore
And it’s a lonely end that you will come to
Morning comes and you don’t want to know me anymore

For a moment your eyes open and you know
All the things I ever wanted you to know
I don’t know you and I don’t want to
Till the moment your eyes open and you know

For a moment your eyes open and you know
All the things I ever wanted you to know
I don’t know you and I don’t want to
Till the moment your eyes open and you know

You say you wander your own land
But when I think about it, I don’t see how you can
You’re aching, you’re breaking, and I can see the pain in your eyes
Says everybody’s changing and I don’t know why

So little time
Try to understand that I’m
Trying to make a move just to stay in the game
I try to stay awake and remember my name
But everybody’s changing and I don’t feel the same

You’re gone from here, soon you will disappear, fading into beautiful light
Cos everybody’s changing and I don’t feel right

So little time
Try to understand that I’m
Trying to make a move just to stay in the game
I try to stay awake and remember my name
But everybody’s changing and I don’t feel the same

So little time
Try to understand that I’m
Trying to make a move just to stay in the game
I try to stay awake and remember my name
But everybody’s changing and I don’t feel the same
Oh everybody’s changing and I don’t feel the same

I don’t know your face no more
Or feel the touch that I adore
I don’t know your face no more
It’s just a place I’m looking for

We might as well be strangers in another town
We might as well be living in a different world
We might as well, we might as well, we might as well

I don’t know your thoughts these days
We’re strangers in an empty space
I don’t understand your heart
It’s easier to be apart

We might as well be strangers in another town
We might as well be living in another time
We might as well, we might as well, we might as well

Be strangers
Be strangers
For all I know of you now
For all I know of you now
For all I know of you now
For all I know

When you, when you forget your name
When old faces all look the same
Meet me in the morning when you wake up
Meet me in the morning then you’ll wake up

If only I don’t bend and break
I’ll meet you on the other side
I’ll meet you in the light
If only I don’t suffocate
I’ll meet you in the morning when you wake

Lovesick bitter and hardened heart
Aching waiting for night waiting for life to start
Meet me in the morning when you wake up
Meet me in the morning then you’ll wake up

If only I don’t bend and break
I’ll meet you on the other side
I’ll meet you in the light
If only I don’t suffocate
I’ll meet you in the morning when you wake

Ooo
If only I don’t bend and break
I’ll meet you on the other side
I’ll meet you in the light
If only I don’t suffocate
I’ll meet you in the morning when you wake

I’ll meet you on the other side
I’ll meet you in the light
If only I don’t suffocate
I’ll meet you in the morning when you wake

This is the last time
That I will say these words
I remember the first time
The first of many lies
Sweep it into the corner
Or hide it under the bed
Say these things they go away
But they never do

Something I wasn’t sure of
But I was in the middle of
Something I forget now
But I’ve seen too little of

The last time
You fall on me for anything you like
Your one last line
You fall on me for anything you like
And years make everything alright
You fall on me for anything you like
And I, no I don’t mind

This is the last time
That I will show my face
One last tender lie
And then I’m out of this place
So tread it into the carpet
Or hide it under the stairs
You say that some things never die
Well I tried and I tried

Something I wasn’t sure of
But I was in the middle of
Something I forget now
But I’ve seen too little of

The last time
You fall on me for anything you like
Your one last line
You fall on me for anything you like
And years make everything alright
You fall on me for anything you like
And I, no I don’t mind

The last time
You fall on me for anything you like
Your one last line
You fall on me for anything you like
And years make everything alright
You fall on me for anything you like
And I, no I don’t mind

I walked across an empty land
I knew the pathway like the back of my hand
I felt the earth beneath my feet
Sat by the river and it made me complete

Oh simple thing where have you gone?
I’m getting old and I need something to rely on
So tell me when you’re gonna let me in
I’m getting tired and I need somewhere to begin

I came across a fallen tree
I felt the branches of it looking at me
Is this the place we used to love?
Is this the place that I’ve been dreaming of?

Oh simple thing where have you gone?
I’m getting old and I need something to rely on
So tell me when you’re gonna let me in
I’m getting tired and I need somewhere to begin

And if you have a minute why don’t we go
Talk about it somewhere only we know?
This could be the end of everything
So why don’t we go
Somewhere only we know?

Oh simple thing where have you gone?
I’m getting old and I need something to rely on
So tell me when you’re gonna let me in
I’m getting tired and I need somewhere to begin

And if you have a minute why don’t we go
Talk about it somewhere only we know?
This could be the end of everything
So why don’t we go
So why don’t we go

Ooo
This could be the end of everything
So why don’t we go
Somewhere only we know?
Somewhere only we know
Somewhere only we know

Don’t turn your back on me
Conceal and protect me
I need you to stop me from reeling around
The time’s gonna come when
You no longer need me
But stay by my side til the sun has gone down

When I am an old man and live by the sea
Will all your thoughts fly to me

As much as I want to
I can’t hold onto you
When will you return to your old home again
May love lie around you
Good fortune surround you
You know where to turn to when you need a friend

When I am an old man and live by the sea
Will all your thoughts fly to me
When I’m far away from the places we’ve grown
Will all your love bring me home

When I am an old man and live by the sea
Will all your thoughts fly to me
When I’m far away from the places we’ve known
Will all your love bring me home

Bring me home

Down in the old town
When my mind was wandering
Round empty hallways
When will I be one again?
You’re just, making it harder for yourself
Making it easy for everyone else
Making it easy for me

In the old time
You’ll never be in and you get never get out
You learn from the family
You’ll never be in and you get never get out
To run to the end of the earth

Under the archways
Where my mind is wallowing
Down to the country
Where I will be well again
You’re just, making it harder for yourself
Making it easy for everyone else
Making it easy for me

In the old time
You’ll never be in and you get never get out
You learn from the family
You’ll never be in and you get never get out
To run to the end of the earth
To the end of the earth and run
To the end of the earth

Build me a home underground
Free from light and sound
Build me a home in the air
I will run, to the end, to the end
To the end of the earth
And run, to the end, to the end
To the end of the earth
And run, to the end of the earth

Once, there was a great storm
Pushed my head beneath the waves
I was gone
Underneath the walnut tree
Where you said you’d wait for me
And I waited, a long long time

I waited a long, long time
I waited a long, long time
I waited a long, long time
I waited a long, long time

Why, why do I come here
Seeking out the memories
I hold dear?
Cos you put your spell on me
Made me live in memory
And I’m frozen, in just the wrong time

I waited a long, long time
I waited a long, long time
I waited a long, long time
I waited a long, long time

There’s a cold voice on the air
You’ve been looking everywhere
For someone to understand your hopes and fears
Well I’ve thought about that for many long years

So I walk through Mansers Shaw
I don’t see you anymore
We love to think about the way things were
But the time has come and I’m glad it’s over

I don’t know why I waste my time
Getting hung up about the things you say
When I open my eyes and it’s a lovely day
You know sometimes I feel like I’m
Getting snowed under with the things you say
When I open my eyes and it’s a lovely day

Now you think that you’re alone
So you make your way back home
I’d love to greet the weary traveller
But your time has gone and I’m glad it’s over

I don’t know why I waste my time
Getting hung up about the things you say
When I open my eyes and it’s a lovely day
You know sometimes I feel like I’m
Getting snowed under with the things you say
When I open my eyes and it’s a lovely day

I don’t know why I waste my time
Getting hung up about the things you say
When I open my eyes and it’s a lovely day
You know sometimes I feel like I’m
Getting snowed under with the things you say
When I open my eyes and it’s a lovely day
