I would wash away your tears
I would take away your pain
I would wait alone for you…

Keep you warm within the shelter
Of a world that we created
And we’d never let them through

I will stay forever lost in you
I will stay forever wanting you

But I’m in circles
Falling down like before
And we’re the same souls
Who never found our way home
On the longest day…

I would listen to you talking
Cos I needed to believe that a change was coming through
And there were moments I was taken by the beauty so complete
But then it disappeared from view

Now I’m in circles
Falling down like before
We’re the same souls
Who never found our way home
On the longest day…

I’m in circles
Spinning out of control…
We’re the same souls
Who never found our way home
On the longest day..

If you had this time again
Would you do it all the same?
I wonder?
Oh, would I?….
Of the promises we made
Is there anything you’d change
In the re-runs of our lives?
If I could call you for a day
Just to hear the words you’d say
I would….
OH
All the Colours that you bring
All come rushing back again
All the places that we’ve been
This time…
All the people that you knew
They’ll come running back to you
All the faces that we’ve seen
This life…
And we never took the time
To see where we were going
We were only passing by
And we never questioned why
The river keeps on flowing
The beauty of the ride
If I could call you for a day
Just to hear the words you’d say
I would
Oh
Chorus again
The river flows….
The river flows…

On that day I took you up
It was now or never…
And I savored all you were
On our road to nowhere…

I don’t want to get out without you now
But you’re the same as always

I know you could, but you won’t leave them
I know you’re cool, but you won’t listen

You crucify yourself
Look what’s happened baby
Are you still by yourself?
Cos I can’t reach you lately…

All you said was not enough
I could not wait forever
If I had stayed to hold you up
It would not make you better

I know you could, but you won’t leave them
I know you’re cool, but you won’t listen

You crucify yourself
Look what’s happened baby
Are you still by yourself?
Cos I can’t reach you lately…

You said you’d leave this
So run away
You don’t need this
So run away
You said you’d leave this…

I know you’re cool…

You crucify yourself
Look what’s happened baby
Are you still by yourself?
Cos I can’t reach you lately…

You crucify yourself
Look what’s happened baby
I know you’re cool
I can’t reach you lately…

Look what’s happened baby.

Baby you were the perfect dream for everyone
I thought it would be oh so very good to meet you
Was I mistaken? Was I the mistake?
I never gave myself like that to anyone…

Fool it’s over now…
Foolish, I know you…

All of the time you were stuck within this place
In a lonely twisted world
And I can’t believe you were
So out of your mind and it’s more than I can take
I could never be your girl
Still I can’t believe you were so foolish boy…

Baby’s got a new place to hide from everyone
You know that I can’t reach you where you go…

Fool it’s over now…
Foolish, I know you…

All of the time you were stuck within this place
In a lonely twisted world
And I can’t believe you were
So out of your mind and it’s more than I can take
I could never be your girl
Still I can’t believe you were so foolish boy…

And I gave all I had
But I can’t bring you back
So I will let this go tonight…

All of the time you were stuck within this place
In a lonely twisted world
And I can’t believe you were
So out of your mind and it’s more than I can take
I could never be your girl
Still I can’t believe you were so foolish boy…

While you make pretty speeches
I am being cut to shreds
You feed me to the lions
A delicate balance
And this just feels like spinning plates
I am living in cloud cuckoo land

And this just feels like spinning plates
I am living in cloud cuckoo land
And this just feels like spinning plates
Our bodies floating down the muddy river

And there is something we leave behind to join the ride
I couldn’t wait but did not realize I’d never come back…
And the calling is taking over and it lasts more than awhile
Another reason I won’t be around to say goodnight

Don’t write to me
I’ll call you (x2)

Don’t write to me
I’ll call you

All of my life I’ve been a lost satellite
It’s all a waste of time with me before I get it right
And I miss you paradise
Although you’re over
And I miss you paradise
I know you’re over
I lie awake and I count the hours passing by
Too many questions that won’t be answered here tonight
And they rise in waves before you and the force opens your eyes
Another reason I won’t be around to say goodnight

Don’t write to me
I’ll call you (x2)

Don’t write to me
I’ll call you

All of my life I’ve been a lost satellite
It’s all a waste of time with me before I get it right
And I miss you paradise
Although you’re over
And I miss you paradise
I know you’re over (x2)

And I miss you

I see the flashing lights through the pouring rain
I’ve been awake all night now I’m on my feet again
So many years ago I’ve been down these streets
And I’m taking my time though I know they’re waiting for me…

Rewind us for a day
Remind me why we changed…
I got a beat of a drum going through my head
I feel it echo on like all those words you said
It’s like nothing’s changed and there’s a trick being played on me
But I’m a lifetime away from where I need to be…

Rewind us for a day
Remind me why we changed…
Rewind us for a day
Remind me why we changed…

Rewind us for a day
Remind me why we changed…
Rewind us for a day
Remind me why we changed…
Rewind us for a day

I took a ride
Fallen in the state that I’m in
Away from the lights
An ending before so we can begin now…

And it’s all I see
This scene’s burnt out
So meet me tonight
We’ll leave behind all that we’ve been

Don’t let it slide further away
With our eyes closed, in circles again
When I’m waiting and hoping for you to say that we’ll go…

And then we’ll ride out
A silent escape that I’m craving
I figured out, for all our mistakes we could win…

(It’s all I see…
These dreams call out
It’s all I need
And I need this now…)

I took a ride
Driven by the state that I’m in…

And the fire will never leave us
Though the path divides between us
You always had the strength to walk alone

And the quiet hours would haunt you
And the wilder winds, they called you
I almost had the strength to let you go

Why were you falling?
Far, far away

I still remember you and those days could not get better
I keep it all, this won’t fade, I’ll never let it
I know you gave it all so good, I can’t forget it
Still lost in you, on that day we’ll stay forever
Stay forever

And I know that time is speeding
Experiences fleeting
I’d give them all away to bring you home

Why were you falling?
Far, far away

I still remember you and those days could not get better
I keep it all, this won’t fade, I’ll never let it
I know you gave it all so good, I can’t forget it
Still lost in you, on that day we’ll stay forever
Stay forever
Stay forever

Why were you falling?
Far, far away

Forever lost in you and those days could not get better
I keep it all, this won’t fade, I’ll never let it
I know you gave it all so good, I can’t forget it
Still lost in you, on that day we’ll stay forever
Stay forever (Stay forever)
Stay forever (Stay forever)
Forever lost in you…

Wise words, she said
“We’d better run for it now…”
A timely escape
We laugh til we all fall down

Now we’re writing on the bathroom walls
Always sleeping on someone’s floor
Walking round the streets like we rule them all…

Now we’re writing on the bathroom walls
Always sleeping on someone’s floor
They know we kick around here, around here…

These days are OURS…

The right words she said
“We won’t be leaving you now…”
As time falls away
We’re safe in what we have found…

Now we’re writing on the bathroom walls
Always sleeping on someone’s floor
Walking round the streets like we rule them all…

Somebody’s knocking at the bathroom door
We always stay a little longer
They know we kick around here, around here…

These days are OURS…

Nobody hears what we say
Hidden in the games that we play
Nobody hears what we say…

Nobody hears what we say
Gettin in the games that we play
Nobody hears, nobody hears…

These days are OURS…
