Away from the outskirts there we are bound
To save up and paint the foothills down
By the wreck in the empty lake
Walk alone down the fire break
The silence is a beauty born
The memory is hard to take

Hit the lights out across the scar
See the leaves dive like falling hearts
The headlights through the smoking trees
Down where the lovers park on a one way street
Our ghosts will pour out like a torrent above the land
At the drains of the coast on the winds of the hinterland

And that laid a fire to rest
Illuminating heavy gold
Driven by the furnace light
Hidden in an ocean fold

Hit the lights out across the scar
See the leaves dive like falling hearts
The headlights through the smoking trees
Down where the lovers park on a one way street

On a one way street
To walk the sea

We glow by the fire when the hills slip into dark
And lay by the flames as the sun dies like a spark
And down, down, down
You're certainly a long way down
I used to find you in a world out there
But I don't see you anywhere

Hit the lights out across the scar
See the leaves dive like falling hearts
The headlights through the smoking trees
Down where the lovers park on a one way street

On a one way street
On a one way street
On a one way street
To walk the sea
To walk the sea
