[00:06.14]Ribbon of the river by my side
[00:13.57]I walk the shores and watch it unwind
[00:21.01]The railway tracks will leave a glimpse of the light,
[00:28.44]From the train, trailing sparks of gold behind
[00:36.63]And as soon as you’re seen it it’s gone
[00:42.64]As soon as you’ve seen it it’s gone
[00:51.58]Secrets of the city
[00:59.22]Make an aching in my heart
[01:05.90]And the mysteries that tease me so
[01:12.96]I long to belong but I always have to go
[01:18.79]People stare and wonder why I stray,
[01:25.69]They don’t understand that wandering’s my way
[01:33.93]I’ll never stop, though time is slipping away
[01:40.10]The elusive light, shining strange on my face
[01:47.42]As soon as you’ve seen it it’s gone
[01:53.53]As soon as you’ve seen it it’s gone
[02:02.18]Secrets of the city
[02:10.93]Make an aching in my heart
[02:17.80]And the mysteries that tease me so
[02:24.48]I long to belong but I always have to go
[02:31.49]Home ties me up
[02:33.35]With discontent
[02:39.12]Since the day I first went,
[02:48.19]Yearning to be back again
[02:54.90]How will I return and when
[03:05.31]Secrets of the city
[03:11.18]Make an aching in my heart
[03:19.26]And the mysteries that tease me so
[03:25.21]I long to belong but I always have to go
[03:35.25]
