Up on the balcony I watched you walk away but I couldn’t see That this parting kiss was forever Oh come back to me Yet another summer without you Soon fall will be there But comes winter I guess I’ll be over in Cornwall somewhere
I try walking in our footsteps These days passing in a time lapse I went through anger, hate and frustration searching for some kind of revocation We couldn’t fail? How did it happen? For a dare? Everything’s shattered Darkness embrace me I’m misplaced here This is the wrong score Stranded on a strange shore
The way we were Our hearts were beating together til something occured Now you’re up there somewhere in Scotland I’m left in midair Guess I’m waiting for your return eternally But comes the end of December Let it rain down on me
What have we found? Just a rebound Was it worth the price we paid? What have we gained after these strains? Remember Penzance Promenade? What’s the truth? The importance of who’s right or wrong I don’t care We've been fooling around for too long Much too long, my Love
The point of no return on our way home
Each day my heart is gettin’ colder The burden’s heavy on my shoulder Over and over I see the same scene Trapped in a nightmare not just a bad dream Couldn’t run coz I was petrified Tried to swallow my foolish pride Cities lost forever so it seems Missing you so much it makes me wanna scream
Last night I had a dream Me flying high above the sea in the sky With my arms wide open dazzling clouds passing by And the mermaids’ song guiding me on my way To the coastline with its white cliffs of chalk and clay
I’m trying hard to keep my eyes shut The things I see they are not clear-cut Tryin' to get you out of my mind Fuck off, you left me behind This time there’ll be no substitution Just like with former dissolutions Occupying my heart Now pack your things and run Because everything's said and done
A saturday back in September The golden sunlight in your eyes This day I always will remember You were the fairest of all brides
(Come to me across the sea)
The sun has gone, We’re on our own Our paradise a fragile dream A void is calling and I’m falling Into time’s adamant stream Called your name into the night but you’re gone All forgone Not a flame will arise from the embers at dawn No more dawn, my Love
