Higher Hopes

Just a matter of time I knew when I saw you The first time we met You can't remember I saw an angel You saw a guy Seasons went by We made a commitment to wear the same disguise Our memories haunt me at night Used to wish I'd be your Knight Now left with a sword and a shield But none the wiser to feel Our memories haunt me at night Used to wish I'd be your Knight Now left with a sword and a shield But none the wiser to feel Now ticks - silent crime Untruth came before you A blue door in or out No looking back My world is cruel Yours waves goodbye We oversimplify the complexity that love takes to survive Our memories haunt me at night Used to wish I'd be your Knight Now left with a sword and a shield But none the wiser to feel Our memories haunt me at night Used to wish I'd be your Knight Now left with a sword and a shield But none the wiser to feel Our memories haunt me tonight Used to wish I'd be your guy Now armed with a word I will kneel But no magic fountain to heal Our memories haunt me tonight Used to wish I'd be your guy Now armed with a word I will kneel But no magic fountain to heal
