I stood in this sunsheltered place
|
'Til I could see the face behind the face
|
All that had gone before had left no trace
|
|
Down by the railway siding
|
In our secret world, we were colliding
|
All the places we were hiding love
|
What was it we were thinking of?
|
|
So I watch you wash your hair
|
Underwater, unaware
|
And the plane flies through the air
|
Did you think you didn't have to choose it
|
That I alone could win or lose it
|
In all the places we were hiding love
|
What was it we were thinking of?
|
|
In this house of make believe
|
Divided in two, like Adam and Eve
|
You put out and I recieve
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
Down by the railway siding
|
In our secret world, we were colliding
|
In all the places we were hiding love
|
What was it we were thinking of?
|
|
Oh the wheel is turning spinning round and round
|
And the house is crubling but the stairways stand
|
|
With no guilt and no shame, no sorrow or blame
|
Whatever it is, we are all the same
|
|
Making it up in our secret world [x3]
|
Shaking it up
|
Breaking it up
|
Making it up in our secret world
|
|
Seeing things that were not there
|
On a wing on a prayer
|
In this state of disrepair
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
Shh, listen...
