The Ballad of a Lost Soul

look away, look away, look away
from the corner of my eye
see the the twinkling of the firelight
bring a color to my hands

as the fire keeps on burning
like the only love i've known
its wings i'll clip tomorrow
send it running off back home

for when you kiss the morning
i'll be heading down the coast
to the backstreets where i started
i've a dealings with a ghost
and i've looked for love between us
but we're running out of sand
and time will wait for no one
it's never what we planned

look away, look away, look away
in the night-time i'll be gone
there'll be days you won't remember
and days you can't forget

for when you kiss the morning
i'll be heading down the coast
to the backstreets where i started
i've a dealings with a ghost
and i've looked for love between us
even though it's turning cold

look away, look away, look away

look away, look away, look away
can't you hear the nightbird song
don't be blinded by the firelight
it's been burning way too long

and the ambers will keep on glowing
like the only love i've known
well its wings i'll clip tomorrow
send it running off back home

for when you kiss the morning
i'll be way on down the coast
to the backstreets where i started
i've a dealings with a ghost
and i've looked for love between us
even though it's turning cold

look away, look away
look away, look away

look away, look away
look away, look away
