Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
The moonlight is shining down Through the factories on the shipyard waters And in a winter midnight Sideways moon sets On the memory of what's gone missing The sidewalk stares up silent I'm just a shadow slowly disappearing A ghost of something real that used to exist A memory of what's gone missing Why do you keep running? The pace is hurried but you're never closer To what it was you thought you wanted It all keeps changing, now something else is missing Who knows where? I knew our time was running out So by the kitchen window back at your house I ended up wasted on whiskey straight And filled the ashtray up with your secrets You were an anchor with high cheekbones I was a soldier with broken fingers You ended up wasted on cheap champagne Celebrating everything that's missing Why do you keep running The pace is hurried but you're never closer To what it was you thought you wanted It all keeps changing and now something else is missing Familiar madness It all keeps changing and now something else is missing Hey, yeah
