Wasted Light-Ronan Keating
That time when we were crossing the Atlantic
The moment that we reached the middle
You turned to me and said something romantic
I've won the race and you're the medal
And all the ocean liners we were passing
Had nothing on our sail and whistle
And as the waves were rolling we were dancing
Like we had enough to lose a little
So sure we were contenders
So strong and willing to fight
But it's a long way down when you're far from the ground
And I've been falling most of my life
And though the sun shines on even after you're gone
I feel sorry for the wasted light,wasted light
Spill off the port into a crowded main street
Looking for somewhere to settle
But soon enough we're lost inside the mystery
We'll be strangers before night has settled
With so much to say we said too little
Back then we were pretenders
So young and ready to fight,oh
But it's a long way down when you're far from the ground
And I've been falling most of my life
And though the sun shines on even after you're gone
I feel sorry for the wasted light
I feel sorry for the wasted light
Oooooo
Oooooo
But it's a long way down when you're far from the ground
And I've been falling most of my life
And though the clock ticks on even after you're gone
I'm just shaking hands with wasted time
I'm still praying you'll come home one night
Oh,it's a long way down
When you are from ground
And though the sun shines on even after you're gone
I feel sorry for the wasted light
I'm still praying you'll come home one night
So here I am crossing the Atlantic
Maybe see you at the middle
