English lyrics of The Country and the City

I opened my eyes last night and saw you in the low light

Walking down by the bay, on the shore, along Walking on the beach in the bay

staring up at the planes that aren't there anymorelooking up at the plane that has gone away

I was feeling the night grow old and you were looking so cold I thought the night was too long and I couldn't help but feel sad, you looked so cold

Like an introvert, I drew my over shirt

Around my arms and began to shiver violently before Can't stop trembling

You happened to look and see the tunnels all around meRunning into the dark underground , to the endless dark underground

All the subways around create a great sound huge sound resounding through the tunnel

To my motion fatigue: farewell farewell my tired soul

With your ear to a seashell

You can hear the waves in underwater caves

As if you actually were inside a saltwater room

Time together is just never quite enough

When you and I are alone, I've never felt so at home When we were apart, we never felt like home

What will it take to make or break this hint of love? What is the cost of maintaining this hint of love?

We need time, only timeWe need time, only time

Can you believe that the crew has goneCan you believe that the crew has gone

and wouldn't let me sign on?Leave my memory

All my islands have sunk in the deep, I have sunk in the deep, I can't extricate myself

so I can hardly relax or even oversleep can't relax or even fall asleep

I feel as if I were home some nights I feel like I'm home again

when we count all the ship lights back we count the ships A night with starry lights

I guess I'l

l never know why sparrows love the snow I guess I will never understand the reason why sparrows love the snow

We'll turn off all of the lights and set this ballroom aglow Lights, make this ballroom glow

So tell me darling, do you wish we'd fall in love? So my dear, please tell me, will you fall in love with me?

Time together is just never quite enough. Time flies so fast.

When you and I are alone, I've never felt so at home without you. Existence

What will it take to make or break this hint of love? I really want to know what maintains love?

We need time, only time is time, what we need is time

When we're apart whatever are you thinking of? When I'm not beside you, no matter what you are thinking of

If this is what I call home, why does it feel so alone? If this is what I call home, why does it feel so alone?

So tell me darling, do you wish we’d fall in love?

All the time, all the time just keep loving and staying together forever

Time together is just never quite enough There is not much time for me to accompany you

When we're apart whatever are you thinking of? When we're apart whatever are you thinking of?

What will it take to make or break this hint of love? How can I make this rope of love to lock you and me?

So tell me darling, do you wish we’d fall in love? Dear, please tell me, do you wish we’d fall in love?

All the time forever
