We wanted to remember everything that we'd forgotten We wanted to believe that we were not fading In the temple we were unfolding In the crooked shadow of the morning In the half-light we saw a window to the door ♪ We were just lonely kids Living in a faded town We were just lonely kids Just ♪ We were living in the moment and the past became the present A memory unfurling, a simple truth returning In my mind I hear you laughing, through the pines I hear you calling And that little bird would sing, I'd remember everything ♪ We were just lonely kids Living in a faded town We were just lonely kids Just Why'd you come round here knocking at my door With your painted face asking for more? In the temple we began to change We were unfolding ♪ We were just lonely kids
