Lyrics

IN THIS CITY

In this city there's a home
In that home there's a room
In that room I'm alone
It's almost midnight

In my mind there's a memory
A memory of a face
Of which I see a trace
In the moonlight

Like a ghost I can't banish
Though I can see plain
You never really vanished
And it's driving me insane

In my life there was a time
A time I recall
With each step I took a fall
Now didn't I

Oh I feel just like my heart is all in chains
Oh I don't believe it's ever gonna change

In this city there's a street
On that street there's a flat
And I keep thinking back
As I draw near it

In that flat there's an echo
An echo of a voice
On the night you made the choice
Just like a spirit

I guess I should have noticed
I guess I should have known
Now I live my life in quicksand
And I'm sinking like a stone

Like a melody that haunts
You linger in my mind
And I lose my sense of time
When I hear it
