I stood in this unsheltered 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 I 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 receive

-------

Oh the wheel it is turning spinning round and round

And the house it is crumbling 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

Making it up in our secret world

Making it up in our secret world

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

Ssh, listen....
