I said that I would meet you, round half past eight
I could hear you were crying waterfalls, tears running down your face
Walking by the riverside, the city came to life
Night time fell on me and you, you said I feel alive
Now I’m blind, with broken time
And the weight of love remains
What if we had stayed at home instead?
Now I wana know
Where do you go?
Where do you go my darling when you’re not with me?
There’s a beat that my heart has skipped for you
There’s a skip in the heart that beats for you
I see how fragile you’ve become, a great divide remains
Barriers window drapes, curtains drawn in vain
The hours pass the days go on, walk the long way home
Time drags on endlessly lonely not alone
I was yours back by the riverside when we felt the city breathe
Now I’m yours, a lovers fool, take every part of me
