Love Lives Lonely Lovers

Wait for me, lady cries

Screaming trains, rainfall eyes

Stars around, paper weights

Screaming trains, empty gates

I won’t forget, your pretty face

Screaming trains, another place


We’ve lost control of who and where we want to be

But here’s a rose, here’s a rose, so set me free


There’s a war, as you can tell

Restless feet, living hell

I want to walk, I want to dream

Restless feet it’s what it’s been

Colours paint themselves untied

Restless feet, love to hide


We’ve lost control of who and where we want to be

But here’s a rose, here’s a rose, so set me free


I must confess, it isn’t me sitting here before you

I must confess, I don’t quite know what to believe

I must confess, it isn’t me sitting here before you

But if you must, if you must, take it before it leaves


Don’t fall apart, you pretty thing

Lover’s eyes, pale diamond ring

Glassy waves, blacked out names

Lover’s eyes, sinners games

Don’t fall apart he hears him say

Lover’s eyes, he’s gone away


We’ve lost control of who and where we want to be

But here’s a rose, here’s a rose so set me free

Here’s a rose and I can’t think of anywhere I’d rather be

Here’s a rose, here’s a rose, so set me free
