When we were young
We walked all night through the streets of Madrid
Those days are gone
And you were right
I can't take back what I did
Now you were gone
I was alone I walked the night apart
I remember the sun
And how you'd known
I would break your heart
You held my hand
I kissed your lips
While we were talking together
But time is sand
We let it slip
Gently through our fingers
I'm cast adrift
I'm falling down like a tower without a base
And since you left
I can't go on in a world without your face
I'll find somewhere, yeah
Somewhere by the river
And lay me down
Warm and gentle
There will never be another
You held my hand
I kissed your lips
While we were talking together
But time is sand
We let it slip
Gently through our fingers
I thought that when I fell in love
It would grow from the start
But like the sand you weigh me down
You out the fire in my heart
You out the fire in my heart
You held my hand
I kissed your lips
While we were talking together
But time is sand
We let it slip
Gently through our fingers
Gently through our fingers
Gently through our fingers
