Each man hurts the things he loves
Stare at the ruins you rise above
Soar above the crumbling spires
The burned out stares and burning tyres
I could show you how to dream
My heart here on my sleeve it screams
These aren't the days to waste away
These aren't the days to waste away
(We kiss in the rain)
Hear it starting to rain
And I can't take my eyes off you
There's no need for names
And I can't take my eyes off you
There's no need for shame
And I can't take my eyes off you
It's starting to rain
And I can't take my eyes off you
Shyness equals dying egos
Crowded rooms and grinding teeth
Observe the past as far as we go
Brainwashed beyond all belief
Hold my hand too long in flame
Destroy the value of my name
But that's the nature of the game
These aren't the days to waste away
Hear it starting to rain
And I can't take my eyes off you
There's no need for names
And I can't take my eyes off you
There's no need for shame
And I can't take my eyes off you
It's starting to rain
And I can't take my eyes off you
