lyrics

The Lover:
Another winter day, another western dream
Another reason to take things the way they seem
I wrote a letter to you to buy myself some time
But after what you did, whose really was the crime?

It's time to see how far we can run
(Is there anything new under the sun?)
They only remember the battles they have won
(Is there anything new under the sun?)
It's time to see how far we can run
(Is there anything new under the sun?)
I can't remember any battles that I've won

My friends have all decided they've had enough
It's either time for goodbyes or time to give up
I'm heading out to find a better thunderstorm
It's better to be cold and alive than safe and warm

And it's time to see how far we can run
(Is there anything new under the sun?)
They only remember the battles they have won
(Is there anything new under the sun?)
It's time to see how far we can run
(Is there anything new under the sun?)
I can't remember any battles that I've won

I'm sorry I won't be there at the end
You've always been my lover and my friend
My ship is leaving out and our story's through
But deep inside I will always yearn for you
