 Akkorde:
Got a  letter  from  a messenger and I read it  when  it  came.
It  said  that you  where wounded, you  where bound  in chains
And  you were loved, you were  handled you were  poisoned,  you where pained.
Oh  no,  you  where naked  you where shammed.
  You could almost touch Heaven, right there in front of you.
 Liberty just slipped away on us, And there so much work to do.
Oh  a door that closes tightly, is a  door I cant  swing wide.
Oh  nooo  Oh  nooo, im  not expecting to collide.
 For a minute I let my gaurde  down, not afraid to be found out.
 Completely forgoten dear,  what our  fears where all about. Oh no
Oh no  dear,  there‘s no need to be without...
 I swear to god baby, there´s no need to be without
 If I could ask you this, Just for a while, just for a while
 Just for some time to clear our minds, just for a while
 Why dont we go, somewhere only we know?
 Why dont we go, somewhere only we know?
 Why dont we go, somewhere only we know?
 
i  walked across  an empty land
i  knew the pathway like the back of my hand
i  felt the earth  beneath my feet
 sat  by the river and it made me complete
oh  simple thing  where have you gone
im  getting old and i need something to rely on
so  tell me when  youre gonna let me in
im  getting tired and i need somewhere to begin
 
i  came across a  fallen tree
i  felt the branches of it looking at me
is  this the place  we used to love?
is  this the place that ive been dreaming of?
oh  simple thing  where have you gone
im  getting old and i need something to rely on
so  tell me when  youre gonna let me in
im  getting tired and i need somewhere to begin
so  if you have a minute why dont  we go
talk  about it somewhere only we  know
this  could be the end of everything
so  why dont we go
 If there´s a chance then I would take it my love
 Cause this desire I won´t kill
 So take my heart but please don´t break it
 And I would crawl to you back in
Now  I´m tracting but I´m  coming
Please  baby please be still
Oh  no,  I´m not  coming for the kill
 Oh no, I´m not coming for the kill
 Oh no, I´m not coming for the kill
 End on
