Marrakech |
They found us in the courtyard at our table in the shade |
We toasted our last few moments and then the end came |
They took us back to the airstrip in that beaten up old car |
And we rattled across the African scrubland in silence |
Our hands locked together with cold steel cuffs |
Sometimes I wish it was still that way |
Now a whole world has died since then, so many faithless days |
I was born alone and lucky and I’m just used to it that way |
My dice still roll in sixes and yours still turn up ones |
And I have taken my good fortune and I’ve run and run |
But I always swore I’d come back for you |
Is it too late now to come back for you? |
Now beneath this lonely junction on the northbound M6 |
We spray our words of signature on the concrete bridge |
And between the words of wisdom and the slogans of despair |
Someone’s just gone and written 'I'm sorry' there |
Well I always swore I’d come back for you |
Is it too late now to come back for you? |
You’re the only one I’ll ever love |
