The Old City's Going Down
The Old City's Going Down
Makes me wonder what I haven't found
I can see clearly but I don't see you around
The building's still there but you've disappeared somehow
I don't know where you've gone, still moving on
I've never searched hard enough
Once shared a guitar, we slept at the bar
Till the lights went out
Those days are long gone now, I know
What a fool I was, I am
Little moon rises, I'll tell you my story
If you like how years have surprised us
Cause suddenly they've passed us by
Little moon sets now, our story's still shouting through the night
We laugh and we don't know how to get home
Before the dawn, before the dawn
Things that I never did, it's too late
Now I am here again, memories fade
Those days are long gone now, I know
What a fool I was, I am
Little moon rises, I'll tell you my story
If you like how years have surprised us
Cause suddenly they've passed us by
Little moon sets now, our story's still shouting through the night
We laugh and we don't know how to get home
Before the dawn, before the dawn
Before the dawn
