Walking Past

Joe & Ellen

Walking past autumn grass on a morning in September

Wind blows on through the dawn and I must remember

That is doesn't even matter who's cross I bear

I could easily be someone else

It's everything

One and the same



And I'm not sad

Floating in the wind

For every other broken heart there's a blade of grass

For every cry in history the voice slowly fades



I think of you in a room with pale yellow carpet

Scribbling on until the dawn words of a lover

And it doesn't even matter just what you write

It's all already inside your heart

You were my friend

Will we smile again?



And I'm not sad

It's just my voice

I could never tire of those summer days

Doesn't it remind you of something more true



Walking past moonlit grass in the dark of the midnight

Wandering on until the dawn your face in blue light

And I wanted so to show you everything

I could love you every lonely day

It's only love

Just let it be crushed



Underneath the weight

Of the city streets

We are always driving them

The same everyday

We are always driving them

Heading the same way
