Why do we always meet on the dark side of the street On the emptiest corners of this town All the talks at closing time standing under neon lights Then embrace 'til there's no-one around You say give me a village that's the size of a cup Or the promise of a city that'll swallow me up Though there's nothing I can say That'll keep you from going away You'll come back You'll come back You'll come back to me I wish we could go back to laying coins on the tracks Lie down and wait for a train to appear The bright sun in our eyes like a graceful disguise And a silence in which we both disappear You say let's take a boat or pick a random road Let's just listen to what life has to say Though there's nothing I can do For me to hang on to you You'll come back You'll come back You'll come back to me You'll come back You'll come back You'll come back to me You'll come back You'll come back You'll come back to me
