So this is how the story went I met someone by accident That blew me away That blew me away
It was in the darkest of my days When you took my sorrow and you took my pain And buried them away, you buried them away
And I wish I could lay down beside you When the day is done And wake up to your face under the morning sun But like everything I've ever known I'm sure you'll go one day So I'll spend my whole life hiding my heart away And I can't spend my whole life hiding my heart away
I dropped you off at the train station And put a kiss on top of your head I watched you wave I watched you wave Then I went on home to my skyscrapers Neon lights and waiting papers That I call home I call it home
And I wish I could lay down beside you When the day is done And wake up to your face against the morning sun But like everything I've ever known I'm sure you'll go one day So I'll spend my whole life hiding my heart away And I can't spend my whole life hiding my heart away
I woke up feeling heavy hearted I'm going back to where I started The morning rain The morning rain And you know I wish that you were here But that same old road that brought me here Is calling me home Is calling me home
And I wish I could lay down beside you When the day is done And wake up to your face against the morning sun But like everything I've ever known You'll disappear someday So I'll spend my whole life hiding my heart away And I can't spend my whole life hiding my heart away
