Under this sun that's fit for a king
I'm up against the rock
I could have been anywhere else in the world
But I'm holding down this spot
And nothing came close and nothing looked good
I'm out there on the edge
On the toe of it all a castle keeps an eye
On the bay under sheets of haze
Somewhere down there with the crashing waves
You kept plans for your grand escape
You won't hear me no more
You'll just feel me
'Cause I will scream, send it out to sea
And I will live a mile beyond, a mile beyond
That heart of yours it's broken, ain't it torn?
As you sleep for the last time (wayoh, whoa-oh-oh), for the last time (wayoh, whoa-oh-oh)
She set out one night for a place she'd never been
Oh, sweet my love, how does it end?
Did you find another house in the sun?
Did you fall in love?
You set sail, but did not fail me
Are you coming back again?
Or have you run like I did?
It's the last time you're gonna do it again
It's in your blood just to say goodbye
This time not for a while
So, find your heaven, go on
You don't need me
But I will scream, send it out to sea
And I will live a mile beyond, mile beyond
That heart of yours broken, ain't it torn?
As you sleep for the last time (wayoh, whoa-oh-oh), for the last time (wayoh, whoa-oh-oh)
Coming to you in the middle of a cold night
I can't arrest the sun, but I am trying
I hear a song coming off a tidal wave
It's alright, it's alright
Nothing gonna touch if you say goodbye
It's alright, it's alright
A million lost souls looking just like me
Waiting on their love, but they don't believe
♪
A million lost souls looking just like me
Waiting on their love, but they don't believe (wayoh, whoa-oh-oh)
I will scream, send it out to sea
Somewhere between the rock face
And the place that I used to know you more
Waiting on the shore
As you plead for the last time (for the last time)
You know I will see you free for the last time (for the last time)
Until I breathe for the last time (for the last time)
And then I will leave for the last time
