There we were thick as thieves Frightened by shadows and the autumn leaves We wore stolen hats, fitted soles Aided by lies amongst the media foes And hey oh, where did it go? When did we lose our sight? And it's a nice show, the ones we perform Performing it day and night, night See the lights upon my face Walking in circles with the human race And all the little people they want to be free But I can't get there 'cause I've got you holding me back And hey oh, where did it go? When did we lose our sight? And it's a nice show, the ones we perform Performing it day and night, night Let me be free Gave you all the high skies but you gave me night I gave you all the high skies but you gave me night I gave you all the high skies but you gave me night I gave you all the high skies but you gave me night Let the lights sing again There we were thick as thieves Frightened by shadows and the autumn leaves Goodbye my sweet, goodbye, goodbye
