Waiting for the Sirens’ Call (Live at Alexandra Palace, 9th November 2018)

[Verse 1]
What does this ship bring to me?
Far across the restless sea
Waiting for the sirens' call
I've never seen it here before
There she plies a lonely trade
Cutting through the breaking waves
Drifting slowly from her course
She is lost forever more

[Pre-Chorus]
We all want some kind of love
But sometimes it's not enough
To, to the wall and through the door
With a stranger on the shore

[Chorus]
I won't desert you
I don't know what to say
I really hurt you
I nearly gave it all away
I've got it all wrong
'Cause you were not the wrong one
And I don't know where to turn when you're gone
When you're gone

[Verse 2]
Gotta catch a midnight train
First to Paris then to Spain
Travel with a document
All across the continent
City life is flying by
The wheels are turning all the while
Get on board we can't be late
Our destination cannot wait

[Pre-Chorus]
All the stars and all the worlds
Filling up this universe
Could never be as close as us
Will never shine as bright, oh God

[Chorus]
I won't desert you
I don't know what to say
I really hurt you
I nearly gave it all away
I've got it all wrong
'Cause you were not the wrong one
And I don't know where to turn when you're gone
When you're gone

[Outro]
How many times must I lose my way, hey
How many words do I have to say, hey
What can I do just to make you see
That you're so good for a man like
A man like me
