Special

New Order

It isn't what it used to be

I wake up every night

On the stairs

Waiting for the dawn to come

Every drop of wine

You can be my time

Only tomorrow knows

Why do we beg when we can borrow

This time we knew

No more or less

There's nothing left



It was always special

It was like water down the drain

I'm intoxicated

Every time I hear your name

I try to remember

But nothing is the same



It wasn't that I didn't try

It's not the kind of thing, that you buy

Written in my destiny

Life is but a dream

Covered by the sky

Stop saying that you're calling time

Look at your life before you start on mine

I'm not the kind of person that you need

I'm sick of trying

I mean that it's over



It was always special

It was like water down the drain

I'm intoxicated

Every time I hear your name

I try to remember

But nothing is the same

It was always special

it was like water down the drain



Patiently you wait for me

You're so blind

I thought it couldn't be

Then changed my mind

Drowning in the endless sea

Line all those lines

The traces of your memory

Don't belong with mine
