lyrics

You told me you were on your way,
That you'd be here in the morning, yesterday.
You said you'd come and take me away,
But you're late and I can't wait in disarray.

So we both knew I couldn't stay,
But you told me that you loved me anyway.
Now I must go, I need release.
'Cos I tore it all apart, piece by piece.

As time began a slow decay,
The fire burned away, the fire burned away.
As fast as the start, it ended today,
The fire burned away, the fire burned away.

I know a little place nearby,
Where I go when I need time to wonder why.
Go down the tunnel and further on,
You can try and search for me but I'll be gone.

As time began a slow decay,
The fire burned away, the fire burned away.
As fast as the start, it ended today,
The fire burned away, the fire burned away.
