It's been years Since we carved our names On a clocktower door Before everything changed We were big eyed boys With the salt on our skin And we'd throw our kites to the wind And they'd fly on and on and on and on On and on and on and on On and on and on and on It's been years Since we whispered soft With the torch light on And the big light off We were tired boys With the soap on our skin And we'd fall asleep to the wind
And we'd dream on and on and on and on On and on and on and on On and on and on and on Cos we're circles We're circles you see We go round round the sun In and out like the sea I'll circle round you You will circle round me And in years When the torch light thins And the clock tower's gone And the big light dims We'll no longer be boys We'll have lines on our skin And they'll throw our dust to the wind
