CrashCarBurn - Somerset West

Raindrops hit the tarmac
And turn this dust to mud
Well an old man walks alone
Down long street
Dreaming of his youth and
Being in love
I get the feeling
That I’m walking in his shoes
Every step I take
Is a tragic take
I have everything to lose
But I just
Can’t keep myself away from you

You know that I want this
But I can’t stay here tonight
And with a heart that weighs
A thousand tons
I’ll wave the world goodbye
And a cold wind blows from
Somerset West
Straight across the path
that takes you home
And I’m always the last one holding on

Darling this is madness
You’ll kill us both like this
Well aching eyes and desperate lips are
Not enough to save this kiss
I’m a lie

You just can’t trust me
I’m killing everything you love
Well the Midas touch
Never hurt so much
So I’m begging you to run
‘Cos I just can’t stop
This thing that I’ve become

Dream on darling
There is a cold wind blowing
Across this path
That takes you all the way back home
