[Verse 1]
All of my fantasies were crystal clean
Met you down the centre
Got off the tube, forgot to remember
Even if I'd hoped for anything
The air was cool as 'vember
The spark that had lit, had now cooled to an ember
[Hook]
I'm running out of time
Got you praying on my mind
No rest for the darlings who don't sleep
Gotta just keep on kickin' it
Intangeble and so sublime
Never get away from my mind
All I ever needed
Was in a new year's meeting
[Verse 2]
When you sat before me, in the seat
I felt no waves of fear
But talked to resist, the reason I was here
Fortunes cast upon an early gaze
The timing seemed so perfect
The moment had pa**ed, washed over like an effect
[Hook]
[Bridge]
Your car was running, ticking over
Like a stopwatch running slow
Nothing made me want to pace this out
Or run any faster
If at any point you made the choice to turn and let me go
I'd be running, be running, be running, far across the hills
[Hook]
