(Tennant/Lowe/Higgins/Cooper/Coler; unofficial version of lyrics)
|
I'm here, you're there
|
Come closer, tonight I'm lonely
|
Come here with me
|
I want it the way it used to be
|
|
What is left of love?
|
Tell me, who would even care?
|
So much time has passed
|
I'd still meet you anywhere
|
Water under bridge
|
Evening after day
|
What is left of love
|
Here that didn't drift away?
|
|
I can remember days of sun
|
We knew our lives had just begun
|
We could do anything, we're fearless when we're young
|
Under the moon, address unknown
|
I can remember nights in Rome
|
I thought that love would last, a promise set in stone
|
|
I'd survive with only memories
|
If I could change the way I feel
|
But I want more than only memories
|
A human touch to make them real
|
|
Another day, another dream
|
Over the bridge an empty scene
|
We'd spend the weekend lost in bed and float upstream
|
I don't know why we moved away
|
Lost in the here and now we strayed
|
Into a New York zone, our promise was betrayed
|
|
I was there, caught on Tenth Avenue
|
You, elsewhere with Culver City blues
|
Then and there I knew that I'd lost you
|
|
What is left of love?
|
Tell me, who will even care?
|
So much time has passed
|
I'd still meet you anywhere
|
Water under bridge
|
Evening after day
|
What is left of love
|
Here that didn't drift away?
|
|
Don't give me all your northern pain
|
Don't sell me New York in the rain
|
Let's leave our promises behind
|
Rewind and try again
|
|
What remains in time that didn't fade away?
|
Sometimes I need to see
|
The way it used to be
|
