[intro: guitar solo]
[ Verse 1 ]
When autumn faded into shades of brown
And the northern winds would chase the daylight down
A thousand miles was waiting out at sea
Calling you, and calling me
[Verse 2]
Through mountain curves and valleys brushed with gold
Toward the warmth we carried in our souls
And vineyards stretching beneath the sun
And the feeling we had just begun
[Verse 3]
Then came the coast in colours we still see
Whitewashed walls and the emerald sea
The air was soft, the days would linger long
And every night became a song
[Bridge, restrained]
we were lighter then, unbound and free
Somewhere between hope and destiny
Where time slowed down and shadows couldn’t stay
And blue skies chased the doubt away
we were living as we’d always dreamed
In borrowed days of gold and tangerine
A world away from everything we knew
Just me and you
[Verse 4]
We found a rhythm we had never known
In foreign streets that somehow felt like home
No need for more than what we had right there
Just time, and light, and perfumed air
[Verse 5:: Restrained]
And now it lives somewhere we won't return
A distant place that time has let us learn
That once we held a life so bright and true
Under skys of endless Blue
[Outro, short Guitar solo]
