lyrics

Heard the city calling, woke up to the morning rain
I remembered you so fondly wonder when I’ll be back again
was the kind of night that we held so tight, cos we know we’ll never get it back. In my mind the the moments were stolen, so we’d run as we cover our tracks

Yeah the streets were screaming found desire for the open plains
your face came to me like a vision, then it vanished without a trace
It’s 32 days since I lost my way, I’ve been looking for a girl like you
got burned by the heat of the moment, now I only have the scars as proof

Now I know to never get too close,
to hide up in your homes and board up the windows
I wasn’t sure, if i could open up these doors
you either fight agains the storm or just let it hit you…

My head was pounding, sober thought pour through my mind
Every night it’s always the same thing, kill ourselves just to feel alive
you would hold me close just to let me go, when you’d say you’d always be there I wasn’t sold, crossed your fingers promised something I knew you couldn’t swear.

Now I found shelter, in my own helter skeltor
hoping the sky would clear up for me
dust off these old bones, rip down the curtains so
so the sun can shine on me…
