[Verse 1]
I was given the room to roam around
Haunting every inch of this lonely town
When the walls of every bar begin to peel
And the faded mirrors reflecting the way I feel
[Pre-Chorus]
I look up and there you are
So distant, but a constant star
[Chorus]
When we said goodbye you held me close
This was always gonna be the path I chose
[Verse 2]
So quick to see the bottom of the glass
How can it be the good things never last?
Well I come to the party only slightly late
My imaginary dalliance just lies in wait
[Pre-Chorus]
I look up and there you are
So distant, but a constant star
[Chorus]
When we said goodbye you held me close (Do do-do do)
This was always gonna be the path I chose (Do do-do do)
And the tears that stain your cheekbones still won't dry (Do do-do do)
What was lost has been too hard to find (Do do-do do)
[Bridge]
They say no man is an island (No man is an island!)
But I'm not sure I agree
[Chorus]
I've been turning corners in my mind (Do do-do do)
Cul-de-sacs are all I seem to find (Do do-do do)
[Bridge]
They say no man is an island (No man is an island!)
But I'm not sure I agree
[Chorus]
When we said goodbye you held me close (Do do-do do)
This was always gonna be the path I chose (Do do-do do)
And the tears that stain your cheekbones still won't dry (Do do-do do)
What was lost has been too hard to find (Do do-do do)
(Do do-do do)
(Do do-do do)
(Do do-do do)
