This city's come between us
Our hopes and all our plans
They flew a line of banners that I don't understand
So we shuffled slowly sideways, said we'd leave it all to chance
Cos this city means more than just plans
I came across a photo, it fell into my hands
And there in space before me, a model to my plans
So as though I'd always known you
I began to understand
That this city means more than I can
And I can hear you calling me right to the sea, yeah ah
Oh I can hear you calling me right to the sea
This city's come between us
Our hopes and all our plans
It's likely no-one's seen us swing the truth between our hands
And it may not hold you dearly, or make you feel romance
But this city means more than I can
This city means more than I can
This city means more than I can
Than I can
Than I can
Than I can
