Your voice springs up like hope inside my sorry head tonight. 
You take it tenderly, the blackout will correct the light. 

At least we were there (at the death of romance) 
My heart was caged and left (with no compass) 
Tried to escape from my chest (I won't ignore you) 
Just want to say 'we've got something for you'. 

Your wrist, your mouth give you away, 
You take it quietly. 
Your lips, your shout remake 
the strange gift that you gave to me. 

At least we were there... 

But you wouldn't behave. 
We're cracking up in the twilight you gave me 
and the future's a forgotten song 
somewhere beyond your beautiful horizon.
