Waste away the days Waiting on a new age But time betrays me And I get older one more year
Walk London's windy streets Go anywhere but home 'Cause I'm looking for the secrets That only cobble stones hold Only the cobble stones know
And I've never been so sure That after all these years, I'll never learn That heavenly creatures never come
You've got a knife-throwing kind of love But your silence cuts the deepest And I know I've made a mess of things And I'm sorry for all that Wish we could get the time back
Because I've never been so sure
That after all these years, I'll never learn That heavenly creatures never come Wait for it Wait for it
Now I'm staring at the sun As if there's a riddle I'm not in on 'Cause the wolves howl to the Moon And she never answers back No, she never answers back
And after all these years, I'll never learn That heavenly creatures never, never been so sure That after all these years, I'll never learn That heavenly creatures never come, oh
