Oh, it's the story we tell each other sometimes
When she's fallin' back into her old self
Is it always so real to feel my cold hands
As they cast back a shadow of you?
It's the pitch-black time of your life
Yeah you know you want it
A portrait of New Zealand so blue
So blue
Yeah, you say you know it
Yeah, you say it's one of those nights
And I'll be back here waitin'
Oh, you know I'm waitin' just for you
Is it always so real to feel my cold hands
As they cast back a shadow of you?
It's the pitch-black time of your life
Oh, you know you saw it
A portrait of New Zealand so blue
Babe we will read between the lines
And I will see you tonight
Lookin' over to you so nice
See the dark in her eyes
(Yeah)
Is it always so real to feel my cold hands
As they cast back a shadow of you?
It's the pitch-black time of your life
Oh, you know you want it
A portrait of New Zealand so blue
