We were going through the harbor going faster than the wind
A perfect match between the man and the machine
Underneath the surface, love's as cold and blue
And you're saying this town is not made for you

Starts getting closer, going through the night
No one can reach us when we're out of sight
Time's running faster, please let us through
Going in any direction will do
And you said to me, you said what it was all about and I said no
You wouldn't take no for an answer
Saying colder than the wind
Your lack of tears is the perfect tent
Don't you try to say it 'cause no words will do
We were communicating through the stereo

Starts getting closer, going through the night
No one can reach us, no we're out of sight
Time's running faster, please let us through
Going in any direction will do
And you said to me, you said what it was all about and I said no

Out on the coast where lovers sin
I wait for ships that won't come in
Love is the most that I can bear
I was the fact you made it clear
Come out tonight; my halo's near, the coast is clear
I'm out of time, speed out of sight, don't leave me here
Tides don't last forever, don't you know?
