Rise & Fall
The Fog Joggers Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm looking around, still haven't found
more reasons to waste our time.
I wish you would say, please lead me astray
And nothing would change your mind.

Oh, and I hope you don't mind to stand by my side,
to be taken away today.
How I wish you would say that this is okay
And nothing would change your mind.

So, I take you away to a place where we can stay
And we say goodbye to where we belonged.
So, I take you away to a place where we can stay
And we say goodbye to where we belonged.

Oh, Lo and behold! The day's getting old
and the dew still lames our limbs.
Let ́s get back on our feet, before the day is complete
and the sight will become too dim.

Oh, and I hope you don't mind to stand by my side,
to be taken away today.
How I wish you would say that this is OK
And nothing would change your mind.

So, I take you away to a pleace where we can stay
And we say goodbye to where we belonged.




So, I take you away to a pleace where we can stay
And we say goodbye to where we belonged.
