Ballboy Postcards From The Beach Lyrics

The day you said you loved me,
We made love for the first time
It was great but it was scary,
You were crying half the night

It was like we'd walked forever,
Through the busy streets and hills
To the church near the graveyard,
With the statues grey and still

We just stood and watched the river,
Wind its silver to the sea
I wished we could stay forever,
Like two statues, you and me

There were parties there were holidays,
And postcards from the beach
Even then I guessed I knew,
That you were moving out of reach

Now I'm locked in different visions,
Of what was and might have been As I try to find the secret,
Of the boy I used to be

Maybe all good things are endless,
Maybe time cannot be fought
Maybe I've lost sight of everything,
In the lessons I've been tought

But I know when I first found you,
You lit a light inside my head
Now that you are gone,
I live in darkness once again

Now that you are gone, I live in...
Now that you are gone...
Now that you are gone, I live in darkness once again

And I need you, And I want you
And I miss you, All the time

And I want you, And I miss you
And I need you, All the time
All the time...
