Dark Roads

The roads are darker now Than they were when we first started I catch the flicker of a passing car And know I'm not alone And we can't stay here any longer You know that don't you? The summer moved off and left us With only dark roads We said we'd meet on that bench in the park Where we started We said we'd never lose our way But here we are both lost again We'd said we'd leave this place And ride this road into the skyline You said you'd marry me You said you'd always be mine Two years down the line We find ourselves alone with strangers Turned far away from love And yearning for the sea like sailors I can still picture the girl who Wrapped my hands in bandages And brought me in from the cold You brought me in from the cold We said we'd meet on that bench in the park Where we started We said we'd never lose our way But here we are both lost again We'd said we'd leave this place And ride this road into the skyline You said you'd marry me You said you'd always be mine We said we'd meet on that bench in the park Where we started We said we'd never lose our way But here we are both lost again We'd said we'd leave this place And ride this road into the skyline You said you'd marry me You said you'd always be mine
