Waste away the days
|
Waiting on a new age
|
But time betrays me
|
And I get older one more year
|
|
Walk London's windy streets
|
Go anywhere but home
|
'Cause I'm looking for the secrets
|
That only cobble stones hold
|
Only the cobble stones know
|
|
And I've never been so sure
|
That after all these years, I'll never learn
|
That heavenly creatures never come
|
|
You've got a knife-throwing kind of love
|
But your silence cuts the deepest
|
And I know I've made a mess of things
|
And I'm sorry for all that
|
Wish we could get the time back
|
|
Because I've never been so sure
|
That after all these years, I'll never learn
|
That heavenly creatures never come
|
Wait for it
|
Wait for it
|
|
Now I'm staring at the sun
|
As if there's a riddle I'm not in on
|
'Cause the wolves howl to the Moon
|
And she never answers back
|
No, she never answers back
|
|
And after all these years, I'll never learn
|
That heavenly creatures never, never been so sure
|
That after all these years, I'll never learn
|
That heavenly creatures never come, oh
|
|
Waste away the days
|
Waiting on a new age
|
