The Unforgettable Fire
Ice, your only rivers run cold
These city lights, they shine as silver and gold
Dug from the night, your eyes as black as coal
Walk on by, walk on through
Walk till you run and don't look back
For here I am
Carnival, the wheels fly and the colours spin through alcohol
Red wine that punctures the skin
Face to face in a dry and waterless place
Walk on by, walk on through.
So sad to besiege your love, so hang on
Stay this time, stay tonight in a lie
I'm only asking, but I think you know
Come on take me away
Come on take me home again
And if the mountains should crumble
Or disappear into the sea
Not a tear, no not I
Stay this time, stay tonight in a lie
Ever after is a long time
And if you save your love, save it all
Don't push me too far tonight
