I walked across an empty land
I knew the pathway like the back of my hand
I felt the earth beneath my feet
Sad by the river, feeling incomplete.

Oh, lovely thing, where have you gone?
I'm getting old, and I need something to rely on
So, tell me when, will I win.
I'm getting tired, and I need somewhere to begin

I came across a dead tree
I felt the branches of it poking at me
Is this the place I used to love?
Where is the place that I've been dreaming of?

Oh, lovely thing, where have you gone?
I'm getting old, and I need something to rely on
So, tell me when, can I begin?
I'm getting tired, of the places I've been.

And if you have a minute, why don't we go
Talk about it somewhere only we know?
This could be the end of everything
So, why don't we go somewhere only we know?
Somewhere only we know

Oh, simple thing, where have you gone?
I'm getting old, and I need something to rely on
So, tell me when, will life begin.
I'm getting tired, and I need to win.

And if you have a minute, why don't we go
Talk about it somewhere only we know?
This could be the end of everything
So, why don't we go?
So, why don't we go?
Ooh, oh-oh
Ah, oh

This could be the end of everything
So, why don't we go somewhere only we know?
Somewhere only we know
Somewhere only we know
