I Can't Stay Long Songtext

I can feel
The turning of the tides
Pulling away the night
Like a sheet
From over me.
In summer time
Dissolve to a beach
And everywhere seems to be
Just a flicker on a silent screen.

Because I can't stay long
Let the sky roll on Just a flicker
And the crowd moves on

clbinep jkorbbdh
In wintertime
Overcoats close in
And the snow tastes of tin
On the steps of any station.
I need to glide In the long green light
Of a July afternoon
Sliding down a vague conversation.

Because I can't stay long
When the moment comes
Just a glance
And the glancer's gone.

Watch closely
As a man with a hat
And a girl with a map
Synchronise with the track
And echo away.
I need to drift through the walls
Let the scenery dissolve
Into some other lives

Because I can't stay long,
Let the crowds roll on
When the right time comes I'll resign.
