lyrics

I have finally moved out of town
and I wonder how she’s doing
as I play my favourite record loud
and there’s no one knocking, screaming
Hey, I’m telling nothing new
when I tell you I’m no liar
there’s only this much you can do
when someone catches fire
So I went back to our town
walked into our street
then looked up to her flat
would there be eyes to greet
hers, to meet?
All the windows were clean
but there was nothing to be seen
maybe just another human being
that maybe no one else is seeing
Was she bleeding in the bathtub
was she hanging from the ceiling, kneeling
I guess I got the strangest feeling
Would you jump into the lake
if your life was at stake
or when you’d hang from a cliff?
I mean… not when but if
There was a shadow, was it a curtain
I didn’t know for certain…
And here on the sidewalk
a sign on the lamppost
a most dreadful drawing
didn’t stop me worrying
Hey, I’m telling nothing new
when I tell you I’m no liar
there’s only this much you can do
when someone catches fire
I was back in our town
walking in our street
and looked up to her flat
where she just stood
where she just shook her head
she just shook her head
I tell you I’m no liar…
someone’s catching fire
