We’re going nowhereWe’re falling fastWe’re going nowhereCan’t make it lastIn the heart of the sunI was waiting for the callI was waiting for the callWe’re going nowhereWe’re falling fastWe’re going nowhereCan’t make it lastIn the heart of the sunI was waiting for the callI was waiting for the callIn the heart of the sunI was looking for the oneI was looking for the oneFor the oneFor the oneFor the oneFor the one

Blooms falling off the hedgeI was reaching my edgeIn the summerSummer of soundIt wasn’t summer ‘til you came aroundI was raising the deadWhile racking my headIn the summerSummer of sound It wasn’t summer ‘til you came aroundI’m never coming downNever coming downNever coming downComing downComing down

In the spring that would never come Saw your eyes behind the sunAlways been apart from youWanna be a part of you You came to meCalled my nameI wanna go backTo that placeDeafening quiet lightHearing sighs of the nightEverything is beautifulAs it is terribleYou came to me Ocean flameI wanna go back To the place Came through meKnew my name I wanna go back To the place You came to me On the spirit plane I wanna go down Wanna go downWanna go downWanna go down
