This is how the story went I met someone by accident It blew me away Blew me away It was in the darkest of my days When you took my sorrow and you took my pain And buried them away, you buried them away I wish I could lay down beside you When the day is done And wake up to your face against the morning sun But like everything I've ever known You disappear one day So I spend my whole life hiding my heart away Dropped you off at the train station Put a kiss on top of your head Watch you wave And watched you wave Then I went on home to my skyscrapers And neon lights and waiting papers That I call home I call that home I wish I could lay down beside you When the day is done And wake up to your face against the morning sun But like everything I've ever known You disappear one day So I spend my whole life hiding my heart away, away Woke up feeling heavy-hearted I'm going back to where I started The morning rain, the morning rain And though I wish that you were here On that same old road that brought me here It's calling me home, It's calling me home I wish I could lay down beside you When the day is done And wake up to your face against the morning sun But like everything I've ever known You disappear one day So I spend my whole life hiding my heart away I can't spend my whole life hiding my heart away
