If I Go Away

(album: Streets - 1991)

Somewhere on that long lonely road
We all stand lone
Looking for clues
From our different views

In the dark I've called out your name
It echoes in vain
Over again
In an empty room

[Chorus:]
If I go away
What would still remain of me?
The ghost within your eyes
The whisper in your sighs
You see
Believe
And I'm always there

Staring down a long empty hall
Pictures on walls
All with your name
But it's not the same

Searching for the chord I can't hear
Been searching for years
It's somewhere inside
But it's well disguised

[Chorus]

Someday I'll take a chance
You find them where you can
They tend to slip away
Those doors to yesterday

Forever is a long time they say
Maybe some day
I'll meet you there
If you've time to spare
Tell me then
Where I can go
Where they won't know
Who I have been
Can we start again

[Chorus]
