All Through The Years - Erasure

Longing to sail on

Through the night to the stars

On until sunrise

Where the moon hides her tears

All through the years

If I could see the world through someone else’s eyes

If I could see through you would I cast you to one side

And if you gave it all would I throw it all away

Like the leaves in autumn winds

From the window in the kitchen

To the fireside by the chair

Sat in familiar surroundings warm night air

Under the bridges that were burning

Before we reached the other side

All the feelings I remember I cannot hide

Not for want of trying

And if you held me here would the moment fade away

Into obscurity like the night becomes the day

For all the broken promises tell me where do I begin

To throw my caution to the wind

Longing to sail on

Through the night to the stars

On until sunrise

Where the moon hides her tears

All through the years

All through the years all through the years

All through the years all through the years

All through the years all through the years
