lyrics

lightning
when will you strike me
not once, but maybe twice
I've been searching
its not polite to say, I'll say it anyway
and in the morning I'll be gone

let go
all these changes
leave me alone
see the dawn rise
this time, this time
my colours fade and twist away
a rushing red that fades to grey so slowly
I know
I know we had a promise made

the stars above begin to fade away
lost amongst the sea and sand
upon the waves that wash all time away
upon the sand we whisper and decay

Ostia
upon a bloodstained coast
I meet a Roman ghost
we're drinking wine
what a fine time
to leave this life of mine
to leave it all behind
and in the morning to be gone

let go
all these changes
leave me alone
see the dawn rise
this time, this time
my colours fade and twist away
a rushing red that fades to grey so slowly
I know
I know we had a promise made
