I was searching through the record section Of a shop in Birmingham Trying to forget the news But you know how things sometimes are The fates conspire to Remind you' No Return' was its title' No Return' like I'd said'No Return', those searing words Burning in my head I'd come across a compilation Called 'Blues in a Minor Chord' As though you were there behind me I'd turned it over to read the sleeve notes, Credits in a daze And a chill came up my spine' No Return' was its title' No Return' like you'd said' No Return', those piercing words Tattered in my head And I'd said,"The pain of being togetherIs more than being apart" I thought of you all December long And now it's a New Year's start"The loneliness of walking by your sideIs more than walking alone" It's why I'm leaving I let out a hollow howling Falling terribly Like wind escaping from a tube I think they call it coincidence Or something like deja vu You never believe it 'til it happens to you' No Return' was its title' No Return' like we'd said' No Return', like icicles Falling through our heads And I'd said,"The pain of being togetherIs more than being apart" I thought of you all December long And now it's a New Year's start"The loneliness of walking by your sideIs more than walking alone" It's why I'm leaving It's why I'm leaving It's why I'm leaving It's why I'm leaving...
