This is something that I really need to say The search for love, my dear, no it won't end in vain And, darling, don't you know, the time and speed don't change We'll always tick away the same I want the sky to be my only boundary There's a lot of people here and most I'd like to meet Everything I need to know, I will learn slowly I'll just take my time, but I'll always be up on my feet What we need (what we need) Is far away like a summer in Dublin or a walk in the rain We couldn't walk (we couldn't walk) With such noise if we left town We'd attract the wolves And they'd run us down And gut us for sure Like when the cops read my journal and asked me a question "What are you, some kind of writer?" I just smiled and shook my head And I said, "Look, my friend, it's questions like these that stop us dead And that shiny badge, yeah, the one you keep polished Well, it means nothing." And it means nothing What we need (what we need) Is far away like a summer in Dublin or a walk in the rain We couldn't walk (we couldn't walk) With such noise if we left town We'd attract the wolves And they'd run us down And gut us for sure
