lyrics

Under a cold electric sky
Over these city streets at night
Between the buildings as they move
Inside the aching hearts of lovers as they fall

It’s moving through me like a ghost
& Winding around in my head
Until time means nothing at all
Inside our aching hearts- lovers as we fall

There’s something about the way you move
You come in & shatter me
There’s something about the way we dance
Speaking in sympathy as cities rise & fall

* Something coming over me
When you slip into the room
Great cities rise & then they fall
& Time means nothing at all
When I’m with you

After the last strains fade away
To die with the very last rays
& I lay my body down to sleep
You still find a way to haunt my dreams
‘Cause there’s something about the way you move
You come in and shatter me
There’s something about the way we dance
Speaking in sympathy as cities rise and fall

* There’s something coming over me
When you slip into the room
Great cities rise & then they fall
& Time means nothing at all
There’s something coming over me
When you slip into a room
Great cities rise & then they fall
& Time means nothing at all
When I’m with you
When I’m with you
Great cities rise and then they fall
& Time means nothing at all
When I’m with you.
