Notice the fall of the city
Please watch it closely
The sun outside shining
The moon also hanging
The years start to gather
Your dreams start to tatter
Your tears busy fuelling this song I'm singing tonight
Through those hopeless nights
I wander alone
Through those hopeless nights
You hold me hand
Happiness a distance we'll never see
This cool fall night only confuses me

At night when we should be sleeping
I lie awake and hear you weeping
About all the things you ever wanted
About all the things that now haunt you
The years start to gather your dreams start to tatter
Your tears busy fuelling this song I'm singing tonight
Through those hopeless nights I wander alone
Through those hopeless nights you hold my hand
Happiness a distance we'll never see
This cool fall night hanging over me
