lyrics

The only thing that passes here is time
Baking in the heat
Shadows on the run
Chasing the horizon down the line
The only thing that passes here is time

Don't go weaving me too deep into your dreams
Your chequered counterpane will never feel the same
If you watch my world through eyeglasses of green
You have woven me too deep into your dreams

The moon is swollen and staring
Drowning in a slingshot of stars
And you are a whole hemisphere away
I am past caring
Burying those memories of ours
It's high time someone new was led astray

A promise that you knew I couldn't keep
We built a world of lies for someone else's sake
Sailed ten thousand miles so I could break
A promise that you knew I couldn't keep

The moon is swollen and staring
Drowning in a slingshot of stars
And you are a whole hemisphere away
I am past caring
Burying those memories of ours
It's high time someone new was led astray
What do you say?

Oh, Don't you go forgetting that I'm gone
'cause I will haunt your dreams
'til the dawn that never comes
From the bottom of the silent Serpentine
Where the only thing that passes
the only thing that passes
the only thing that passes here is time
