Love And Money - Walk The Last Mile lyrics

I am shipwrecked in the night I watched a girl with eyes like thin ice Say "Dive into these pools of blue," But I tripped over you I curse these cool whispering lights I curse the things that keep me from you Again my patience makes the climb Will my tears buy me time? In your light I crumble, forgot what I'd been told I never thought that I could feel so old You're at the center of everything I do Wherever I go, I'll walk the last mile with you I heard you say, "Dissolve in my arms And run to fall in these meadows" But you're just a memory From a mocking old dream But I cling to my dreams I'm drawn to things that k** me It's safer to pretend But I'll deceive myself again I your light I crumble, forgot what I'd been told I never thought that I could feel so old You're at the center of everything I do Wherever I go, I'll walk the last mile with you I've seen the whole world turn to gold It's just like a fairground ride Sometimes it turns out That the tyrants are the pearls You'll always know, someone loves you in this world I want to burn like I burn I want to burn like I burn I wake up in the harsh light Spilled my heart in a cold night I've got too much time to k** I wrote you're name upon my wall I your light I crumble, forgot what I'd been told I never thought that I could feel so old You're at the center of everything I do Wherever I go, I'll walk the last mile with you
