I waste away the days
Waiting on a new age
But time betrays me
And I get older one more year
Walk London's windy streets
Go anywhere but home
Cause I'm looking
for the secrets
That only cobble stones hold
Only the cobble stones know
And I've never been so sure
That after all these years
I'll never learn
That heavenly
creatures never come
You've got a knife
throwing kind
of love But
your silence
cuts the deepest
And I know I've made
a mess of things
And I'm sorry
for all that
Wish we could get
the time back
And I've never been so sure
That after all these years
I'll never learn
That heavenly
creatures never come
Wait for it
Wait for it
-------------
Now I'm staring at the sun
And if there's a
riddle I'm not in on
Cause the wolves
howl to the Moon
And she never answers back
No she never answers back
And after all these
years I'll never learn
That heavenly creatures
never never been so sure
That after all these
years I'll never learn
That heavenly creatures
never come ummm
Waste away the days
Waiting on a new age
