Song Lyrics

Now we've travelled far
But are we any nearer?
There's a feeling we're reaching for
In the fields where it all began

Listen do you hear?
I thought I heard a promise
But that empty fear, it grows
And I'm scared that I will forget

But I, I can remember
Look around and round
There's people still hanging on
See it's me, I'm the one
Believe in me, I've just begun
We'll be here when the lights come on
When it all comes down to me and you

Just a boy and girl
Trying to change a cold world
I don't expect that you'd understand
When you look at this empty land

But I, I can remember
Look around and round
There's people still hanging on
And I, I can remember babe
Be it night or day
Like lovers left holding on
See it's me, I'm the one
Believe in me, I've just begun
We'll be here when the lights come on
When it all comes down to me and you

But I, I can remember
Look around and round
There's people still hanging on
And I, I can remember babe
Be it night or day
Like lovers left holding on

But I, I can remember (backing vocals)
Look around and round
There's people still hanging on
An on and on and on and on
An on and on and on and on
An on and on and on and on
You keep me holding on
You keep me holding on
Like lovers left holding on
Like lovers left holding on
