Remember when the nights had no end |
|
The moon was made for us to keep |
|
The winter came the cold the rain |
|
And we did nor complain |
|
We had our empty streets |
|
And that's why |
|
I wish I could build a world for you |
|
I wish I could wish a world for you |
|
And give your everything your heart desires |
|
As everyone you know will tell you |
|
Before the days could get away |
|
We trapped them in out sleep |
|
So they could never leave |
|
The years were scared, |
|
Never dared lay a hand on us |
|
Time was hours to heave |
|
Remember when the nights had no end |
|
And life was all we had to eat |
|
We stole the clocks and hid them all |
|
Behind a crooked lock |
|
And kept out empty streets |
|
And that's why |
