[Verse 1]
Out here at the edge of town I saw her
Alone on the water
I watched from the ridge as the trains passed under
My eyes full of wonder

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Here I can see lakes of fire, as she called to me

[Chorus]
And I could see beyond the ordinary
Lost to me in every faded memory

[Verse 2]
Here under the bridge her eyes looked younger
An absence of colour
The sound of her voice lost in thunder
My heart full of hunger

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Here I can see lakes of fire, as she whispered to me

[Chorus]
And I could see beyond the ordinary
Lost to me in every faded memory
[Bridge]
Out into the dark I stand out here at the edge of the World
I made a promise to never grow up and forget
All the days here when I was so young

[Refrain]
And I could see beyond the ordinary
Lost to me

[Outro]
And I could see
Beyond the ordinary
Lost to me
In every faded memory
