SPARK
Wild Colonials Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I knew love had to change so I held your hand more tightly
And when I asked you to leave you smiled at me politely
Please forgive my grief I look like I have plenty
And still I asked you for more til I leave you feeling empty

The spark is gone but the love lives on
The spark is gone but the love lives on
The spark is gone but the love lives on

Even though I'm far away I pull the strings more tightly
And lying in my bed today I remember I cried for you nightly
Even though my life is long sometimes in the ??darkest ????
And still I asked you for more til I leave you feeling empty

The spark is gone but the love lives on
The spark is gone but the love lives on
The spark is gone but the love lives on

Two continents?? and a rainy day
couldn't wash the truth away
I wake up calm in the dead of night
and knew in my heart that this wasn't right
Two continents?? and a rainy day
couldn't wash the truth a waaaayyy

Two continents?? and a rainy day
couldn't wash the truth away
I wake up calm in the dead of night
and knew in my heart that this wasn't right




Two continents?? and a rainy day
couldn't wash the truth a waaaayyy
