Nothing can ever be the same All of the promises we made seem hollow But there's still some streets in this town Oh, they're marked, they're marked with your shadow
So if you see me, look surprised Well, well, well, if you don't Oh, just pass me by And I may, I may even brush your sleeve Oh, as you turn around, turn around and leave
Now it's hard to act like strangers When we used to be so strong Everything is changing And most of it is wrong What do we know of anything Two fools of some renown Either side, either side of the same town
Somewhere there's a light Oh, I can sense it Though I may fall back again Oh, I know, yes, I know it's a fight Oh, but I must, Lord, I must Withstand the strain
Now it's hard to keep ignoring Someone you recognise And if I seem contented Well, that's only my disguise What do we know of anything Two fools of some renown Either side, either side of the same town Oh, yeah, either side, either side of the same town
