[00:04.55]{Verse 1}
[00:05.34]Keeping her bright eyes focused on the coastline waiting for you
[00:12.61]Isn't she all of us pining for that last kiss, a permanent truth, a means to get through
[00:19.35]Maybe we'll cry whilst hopeful when we think about the past being cruel
[00:24.68]Got a thought for those who start to think of love as the pursuit of a fool, it's a palace from ruin
[00:36.60]Deep into the night, eyes closing, heart swollen with my loving for you
[00:43.26]A solid embrace, kind face, and then the hurt starts leaving the room, followed by goons
[00:50.33]Sometimes it's open wide and light, the road at night, you've got a heart like the moon
[00:56.09]Gather courage, if you're doing something, do it, 'cause she got to go soon
[01:01.38]{Chorus}
[01:02.49]If I could now
[01:04.74]I'd never tell you not to love her
[01:08.17]However, leaving her a long way from her home
[01:13.27]And that ain't no promise, cracking over time
[01:17.27]A private corner of Roma
[01:20.90]Don't shadow the light, wait, good love grown
[01:27.43]If I could now
[01:30.68]If I could now
[01:33.25]If I could now
[01:36.76]If I could now
[01:39.59]If I had you now
[01:48.06]{Verse 2}
[01:53.15]So keeping bright eyes focused on the coastline waiting for you
[02:00.09]Don't give me that bye-bye baby when the night moves into black from the blue
[02:04.80]The nights you've been through
[02:06.91]Just give me that wide smile made for putting songs into the hearts of the doomed
[02:11.86]And catch a cold heart staring at the water, babe, remember you flew
[02:18.02]{Chorus}
[02:18.89]If I could now
[02:21.61]I'd never tell you not to love her
[02:24.39]However, leaving her a long way from her home
[02:30.30]That ain't no promise, cracking over time
[02:33.37]A private corner of Roma
[02:37.34]Don't shadow the light, wait, good love grown
[02:43.46]If I could now
[02:46.82]If I could now
[02:49.85]If I could now
[02:53.01]If I could now
[03:20.68]If I could now
[03:25.43]I'd never tell you not to love her
[03:28.19]However, leaving her a long way from her home
[03:33.99]And it ain't no promise, cracking over time
[03:37.90]A private corner of Roma
[03:41.43]Don't shadow the light, wait, good love grown
[03:47.09]{Outro}
[03:47.68]So say what you want, dear
[03:51.49]But the courage was won
[03:54.88]With the way that you spoke here
[04:01.14]When the dreaming was done
