I caught the tail of something I forgot to give   it's the strangest of emotions   I couldn't tell if it's the enemy in me   and now well I could take a thousand years   where no-one stands and no-one hears   something tells me I could be alright   through all the changes I could crawl   it's not enough to save it all   temporary happiness, I like it      Chorus:   would you say I'm never gonna tell you   don't you know I'm straight to the point again   and I'm waiting for the second sun   to show me where I'm going wrong      could you see if anybody is looking my way   I don't know if I believe you   I hope to God it's coming back on me someday   it's always happening to someone who   could take it all and see it through   now I'm left with nothing that I would need   and everything will turn around   and just as I am here I've found   standing in the wake of you, I like it      [Chorus]      now you'll hide in the alleyway   safe from the longest day   we'll take on all you say   temporary happiness   I never thought I'd be the friend you had in me      [Chorus] x 2      hide in the alleyway   safe from the longest day   we'll take on all you say   straight to the point again   I never thought I'd be the friend you had in me   straight to the point again      hide in the alleyway   safe from the longest day   we'll take on all you say   straight to the point again   I never thought I'd be the friend you had in me...
