Late in a cold November
Heard a sound to change our lives
Echoing round the houses
To some it came as no surprise
We are the only people
We are the only two
Become two solitary lovers
Confined in a single room
Faces appear at windows
Hear them knocking on the door
Don't let them in, don't let them
Cover your ears forget you saw
We are the only people
We are the only two
Become two solitary lovers
Confined in a prison
Listen, I'm talking to you
We are the lonely people
We're losing all we knew
And all our dreams and rages
Amount to nothing now
We are the lonely people
We're losing all we knew
And if it matters to you
We've lost our spirits too
Become two solitary lovers |
Was that a shout of victory?
On a ?????? that no one fought
We could be free or frozen
Oh, cover your ears forget you thought
We are the only people
We are the only two
Become two solitary lovers
Confined in a prison
Listen, I'm talking to you
We are the lonely people
We're losing all we knew
And if it matters to you
We've lost our spirits too
We are the lonely people (hey, hey, hey)
We are the lonely people (ooh)
