{Verse 1} Keeping her bright eyes focused on the coastline waiting for you Isn't she all of us pining for that last kiss, a permanent truth, a means to get through Maybe we'll cry whilst hopeful when we think about the past being cruel Got a thought for those who start to think of love as the pursuit of a fool, it's a palace from ruin Deep into the night, eyes closing, heart swollen with my loving for you A solid embrace, kind face, and then the hurt starts leaving the room, followed by goons Sometimes it's open wide and light, the road at night, you've got a heart like the moon Gather courage, if you're doing something, do it, 'cause she got to go soon {Chorus} If I could now I'd never tell you not to love her However, leaving her a long way from her home And that ain't no promise, cracking over time A private corner of Roma Don't shadow the light, wait, good love grown If I could now If I could now If I could now If I could now If I had you now {Verse 2} So keeping bright eyes focused on the coastline waiting for you Don't give me that bye-bye baby when the night moves into black from the blue The nights you've been through Just give me that wide smile made for putting songs into the hearts of the doomed And catch a cold heart staring at the water, babe, remember you flew {Chorus} If I could now I'd never tell you not to love her However, leaving her a long way from her home That ain't no promise, cracking over time A private corner of Roma Don't shadow the light, wait, good love grown If I could now If I could now If I could now If I could now If I could now I'd never tell you not to love her However, leaving her a long way from her home And it ain't no promise, cracking over time A private corner of Roma Don't shadow the light, wait, good love grown {Outro} So say what you want, dear But the courage was won With the way that you spoke here When the dreaming was done
