I Know A Place - Petula Clark

You'd burn this city to the ground. You've lost your heart. You've lost your mind. Falling by the wayside with no regrets. You're just a slave to the sorrow. For all this time you've been so lost. So tonight you will shine like diamonds in the sky. Time still remains. These broken words can't save the day. Fate to be explained. A tortured soul as daylight fades. Don't you give up on me now. I've never let you go and I never will. Don't you give up on me now. I've never let you go and I never will. I never thought that you could sink so low. Now I can see the light that you see. ' Til the end, 'til the death. This is forever. Upon the tides you will scream. ' Til the end, 'til the death. This is forever. Time still remains. These broken words can't save the day. Fate to be explained. A tortured soul as daylight fades. Let's go to a place I know, where the familiar sting allows me to let go. If I could take it all back, I would give it all away. The clothes on my back, the tears of yesterday. I sit and watch you're world go by. Darkness my friend, you're my light while I'm high. Can I still feel? Can I hurt? I'm ready to leave. I'll turn dust to dirt.

I know a place that's sound and safe for us now No need to hide or say goodbyes Leave them out, we'll run away It'll be okay Hmm Bum bah dum dum We can chase waterfalls and talk 'til all my hair dries Just lie on the sand, each hand in hand in paradise 'Cause we don't got long 'Til we say so long Hmm Dum dah dum dum dah duh duh dum dah We can live in this lovely dream It'll be my reality Hmm I know a place that has no trace of us now It's just a thought So don't tell me it's wrong

Every day as heaven Moves further and further away Familiar blue eyes I once knew Turn a colder shade of grey Every day as heaven Moves further and further away Familiar words we used to share Seem so difficult to say And I am alone In a world of cold flesh Cold steel, cold stone I close up like a clam And shut the world out with the slam of the door To shut out all the fighting, all the hatred, all the war You just cannot stay calm When your soul screams less, but something always wants more What for? Every day as heaven Moves further and further away Familiar blue eyes I once knew Turn a colder shade of grey Every day as heaven Moves further and further away Familiar words we used to share Seem impossible to say Every day Every day Heaven moves further and further away Everyday Everyday Heaven is moving further and further away Every day Every day

The wood burns warm The house is still The music soothes And soon I will Look for in another What I'd found in you What we had in each other But you couldn't live through Old love burns My body aches And I'm taking time For as long as it takes As the sunset fades And the moonlight breaks I'll try and put right All my mistakes A throwaway world A throwaway life I'm glad I'm by myself tonight When all passion's spent In the one you love When there's no guiding hands From a god above When all that's left Is never enough But there was a time That I can't find Filled with light From a love inside Filled with love It was a world so wide And we'd run from one To the other side Filled with laughter And a love so bright Now I wait for something By hushed firelight Something that would tell me Everything's all right A throwaway world A throwaway life I'm glad I'm here by myself tonight Where the wood's all warm And the fire burns bright And I tell myself everything will be all right As the sunset fades And the moonlight breaks The world is a small warm room tonight
