The fires are burning in another land Don't start counting, don't start counting Colder and colder the ice is moving closer And gets me down Going round and round and down the same old track Pack on my back, going swiftly nowhere Heart in my ear beating like a drum Where will you go? All by yourself And now I'm standing on a corner Waiting in the rain But then in sunlight without warning I invent a name Me and Sarah Jane We had a special thing going Me and Sarah Jane It was a time of love and laughter It wouldn't come again We had our round of joy but after Then began the pain Me and Sarah Jane We had a special thing going Me and Sarah Jane Sarah Jane Searching for a clue Traces on the sand First I'm flying, going round round round Then I'm sliding going down down down Doesn't matter where I start I always end up Crawling through those same old crowded rooms Me and Sarah Jane We had it coming All the pain Walking down the streets And finding nothing is the same And now the city lights are dimming, one by one It costs too much money to keep them on Me and Sarah Jane In silence walk along the shore Tears of joy and mocking laughter Words lost in the wind The tide was rising But there we stayed We had no fear of dying We weren't afraid
