When We Dreamed

If you turn towards the way the ship did come You can smell the earth that you and I lived on All the pity that you had on me back then All the Sunday afternoons with all your friends You never did think I'd reach the deep Of the world we found when you still had a dream But now the time below your feet has turned to stone And the children at your knees they will never know It was two miles long and you were never coming back From the hill where you left no track From the hill where you bled and died Forget you I couldn't if I wanted to Even if the moon stayed true Even if the sun told lies And on the edge of all the trouble we did find There was a life that you and I now we cannot hide But if you like the way the road is bending on Well then I'll leave you with the sparrows and be gone And your sky may turn to red and blue and black But you may never see the sky with what you had So if you turn towards the way the ship did come You can find the earth that you and I lived on It was two miles long and you were never coming back From the hill where you left no track From the hill where you bled and died Forget you I couldn't if I wanted to Even if the moon stayed true Even if the sun told lies Now you can't tell me what we had was a worn-out stay 'Cause if you'd gone that way You'd be the one with eyes dried And if you hold your heart I'm certain you can go back there To the world you spared When you still kept your nights bright And if you turn towards the way the ship did come You can smell the earth that you and I lived on
