I would open up the book
But I don't know where to start to look
You're so tall & you're so strong
Stand by me this won't take too long
Do you remember I called for you
& you were gone

I thought we were safe but I was wrong
I'm just left here standing looking on
You ask me which was i'll go
Whichever was the wind blows I don't know

& there is no eternity at any price
& beggars & chooser don't get to live in paradise
People die for just one kiss
& it's plain to me
We are not being everything that we could be
No-one wants to run the risk

Sometimes I wish I was blind
I thought I saw a whole lot more than this.
