Darker grows the moon, and shadows steal across the prison of my room
I fight the sleep back from my eyes
I know I'll only be alone when I rise, I'll only be alone when I rise
Candles flicker out, the curtains flutter and a chill is all about
I keep reliving yesterday, time won't make my memories fade away
My memories won't fade away
[Chorus]
When life was just a carousel, a penny in a wishing well
A heavy-lidded summer night under the stars
Our pleasures were so easy then, I never gave a thought to when
We'd come apart, victims of floating hearts
Love was in the air, and I believed there'd always be enough to share
I never felt the winds of change, your love for me so suddenly blown away
Your love for me has flown, flown away
[Chorus]
[Chorus: x 2]
We'd come apart, victims of floating hearts
We'd come apart, victims of floating hearts...
I fight the sleep back from my eyes
I know I'll only be alone when I rise, I'll only be alone when I rise
Candles flicker out, the curtains flutter and a chill is all about
I keep reliving yesterday, time won't make my memories fade away
My memories won't fade away
[Chorus]
When life was just a carousel, a penny in a wishing well
A heavy-lidded summer night under the stars
Our pleasures were so easy then, I never gave a thought to when
We'd come apart, victims of floating hearts
Love was in the air, and I believed there'd always be enough to share
I never felt the winds of change, your love for me so suddenly blown away
Your love for me has flown, flown away
[Chorus]
[Chorus: x 2]
We'd come apart, victims of floating hearts
We'd come apart, victims of floating hearts...
