Testi

One day when I was walking
A memory sparked of you
My friends together we covered the years
But I think I only glimpsed truth
Family treasures I'm missing
The stories that gave me clues
Every one a fragment of words
Suspended but never used
John I wanted to tell you I've been watching the wire
All these years later I think I now know why
You jumped up and left for something you could not miss
All the things you never told me
All the secrets never known
How many people we have lost our hold on
Missing the ones they left and known
No we weren't broken hearted
No we weren't confused
We were always in the moment
Alive and true
But now I have questions
And all the answers are blown away
We talked to each other with nothing to hide
But now we'll never talk again
John I wanted to tell you I've been watching the wire
All these years later I think I now know why
You jumped up and left for something you could not miss
All the things I never told you
The secrets never known
How many people we have lost our hold on
Missing the ones they left and known
Are you there?
I need to tell you
You came one night, you came running
You saw a rhythm that could run halfway across London
You were animated, exhausted
Exhilarated, charged, desperate, confused
You looked hurt
What was on your mind?
Then you said "Only twenty
I'm afraid people will roll around
I'm gonna get you what you said
I have to go, I have to go, I have to go
I have to go, I have to go
I want this, I want this
Why?"
And I miss you, miss you, miss you, miss you
And I miss you, miss you, miss you, miss you
Miss you, miss you, miss you, miss you
Sometimes when I'm walking
You're there in my mind
I'm wishing we could have laughed more together
I'm wishing we had more time
John I wanted to tell you I've been watching the wire
All these years later
John I wanted to tell you I've been watching the wire
All these years later
John I wanted to tell you I've been watching the wire
