Days Go By
What if I knew you
What if you never asked me why
And you tried
And you tried
And you tried
What if I fooled you
What if I never told you why
And you cried
And you cried
And you cried
Passing through the heights
Beyond the boulevard
A secret remains
Buried with my restraint
Through the hidden path
Caught up in wandering light
I'm tracing your name
Etched in stone again
What if I knew you
What if I never asked you why
But you tried
But you tried
But you tried
What if I fooled you
What if you never told me why
But you cried
But you cried
But you cried
If death's a world away
Why am I seeing things again
Visions of blank faces
In distant places
I think this is the end
I tried to to run away
But she's still here inside my head
Like a patient on the table
With the angels
Be seeing you, my friends
As the days go by
I'm running out of time
Dance, dance
'Til the mourning ends
She's calling me
Calling me home again
Under Byzantine skies
I dreamt of her emerald eyes
Dance, dance
'Til your heart gives in
She's calling me
Calling me
She's calling me
Calling me home again
I will miss the days
I will never see
Like a star on a movie screen
It's just like heaven
I will miss the pain
And the love you gave
Like a flower on a grave
It's just like heaven
As the days go by
I'm running out of time
Dance, dance
'Til the mourning ends
She's calling me
Calling me home again
Under Byzantine skies
I dreamt of her emerald eyes
Dance, dance
'Til your heart gives in
She's calling me
Calling me
She's calling me
Calling me home again
I woke up it was half past seven
And time never felt so irrelevant
Misanthropic catatonic
The whole damn place feels haunted
Or animatronic
I walked outside and found a tenement
Abandoned
Waiting for a better man
Elusive or quixotic
These truths defy
All explanation
Or sound logic
I would stop missing you
If that's really what you want me to do
You may deny the truth
But in the next life
I'll keep searching for you
I will miss the days
I will never see
Like a star on a movie screen
It's just like heaven
I will miss the pain
And the love you gave
Like a flower on a grave
It's just like heaven
As the days go by
I'm running out of time
Dance, dance
'Til the mourning ends
She's calling me
Calling me home again
Under Byzantine skies
I dreamt of her emerald eyes
Dance, dance
'Til your heart gives in
She's calling me
Calling me
She's calling me
Calling me home again
I am gone today
Far from all that's grey
The darkness has abated
For you now
You now
All the saints
Have gone away
You're doing better
Than you think
The losers win
For a change
You'll be much better off this way
They say
For you now
I will miss the days
I will never see
Like a star on a movie screen
It's just like heaven
I will miss the pain
And the love you gave
Like a flower on a grave
It's just like heaven
As the days go by
I'm running out of time
Dance, dance
'Til the mourning ends
She's calling me
Calling me home again
Under Byzantine skies
I dreamt of her emerald eyes
Dance, dance
'Til your heart gives in
She's calling me
Calling me
As the days go by
I'm running out of time
Dance, dance
'Til the mourning ends
She's calling me
Calling me home again
Under Byzantine skies
I dreamt of her emerald eyes
Dance, dance
'Til your heart gives in
She's calling me
Calling me
She's calling me
Calling me home again
What if you never asked me why
And you tried
And you tried
And you tried
What if I fooled you
What if I never told you why
And you cried
