[Verse 1]
This is how the story went
I met someone by accident
Who blew me away
Blew me away

And it was in the darkest of my days
When you took my sorrow and you took my pain
And buried them away
Buried them away

[Chorus]
I wish I could lay down beside you when the day is done
And wake up to your face against the morning sun
But like everything I've ever known, you'll disappear one day
So I'll spend my whole life hiding my heart away

[Verse 2]
Dropped you off at the train station
Put a kiss on top of your head
Watched you wave
Watched you wave

Then I went on home to my skyscrapers
And neon lights and waiting papers
That I call home
I call that home
[Chorus]
I wish I could lay down beside you when the day is done
And wake up to your face against the morning sun
But like everything I've ever known, you'll disappear one day
So I'll spend my whole life hiding my heart away

[Verse 3]
Woke up feeling heavyhearted
I'm going back to where I started
The morning rain
The morning rain

And though I wish that you were here
On that same old road that brought me here
It's calling me home
It's calling me home

[Chorus]
I wish I could lay down beside you when the day is done
And wake up to your face against the morning sun
But like everything I've ever known, you'll disappear one day
So I'll spend my whole life hiding my heart away
I can spend my whole life hiding my heart away
