I was on my way, I swear But I took a wrong turn there For I zigged when I should have zagged It's a sombre turn-out tonight in chemistry class Tragedy in our park Something happened in the dark We brought raincoats and pretty charms And I did remember this time to keep it inside Then we kept the water still On the broken window sill For if not, we'd have to move It is sweet outside Where it seems magical And if nothing works We'll do nothing I hope we're on time And we shouldn't look at the sky The perilous light We were not allowed outside And no-one could tell us why I got worried, with shaky hands So we said the words that we kept for worrying times I was on my way, I swear But I lost my way somewhere And the trees were listening From the sill is trickling water when the rain returns We have our suspicions, thinking what my heart confirms It is sweet outside Where it seems magical And if nothing works We'll do nothing Save yourself tonight Asleep in the dark I hope we're on time
