| When time takes no prisoners this side of the moon
|
| and fortunes the hunter and living’s for free
|
| and you broke my defences you took a piece of my heart and I
|
| couldn’t believe this could happen to a man like me
|
| now you’ve had your lovers and you’ve got your friends
|
| we come from different horizons, but the end was the same
|
| hot nights in the city or the touch of your skin
|
| oh I couldn’t believe this could happen to a man like me
|
| And if you ask me for a reason then I wouldn’t have a clue
|
| but I’d walk away from heaven just to be with you
|
| honey just to be with you
|
| Ain’t got no axe to grind ain’t no tour de force
|
| you asked me in for a bottle of wine I said of course
|
| Now the river is singin' way down past your door
|
| and the forest is moving, in the arms of the wind
|
| Far away from the city we got time on our side
|
| Oh I never believed that ever was forever like this
|
| and time takes no prisoners and time makes the rules
|
| and time plays the marker for the wise men and fools
|
| outside winter is howling we’re lying soft in your bed
|
| oh I never believed this could happen to a man like me
|
| And if you ask me for a reason then I wouldn’t have a clue
|
| but I’d walk away from heaven just to be with you
|
| honey just to be with you
|
| And all the gold of Kubla Khan, couldn’t change my point of view
|
| yes I’d walk away from heaven just to be with you
|
| oh I’d walk away from heaven just to be with you |
