Out here at the edge of town I saw her
Alone on the water
I watched from the ridge as the trains passed under
My eyes full of wonder

Here I can see lakes of fire, as she called to me

And I could see beyond the ordinary
Lost to me in every faded memory

Here under the bridge her eyes looked younger
An absence of colour
The sound of her voice lost in thunder
My heart full of hunger

Here I can see lakes of fire, as she whispered to me

And I could see beyond the ordinary
Lost to me in every faded memory

Out into the dark I stand out here at the edge of the World
I made a promise to never grow up and forget
All the days here when I was so young

And I could see beyond the ordinary
Lost to me

And I could see beyond the ordinary
Lost to me in every faded memory
