lyrics

Someone's wearing her perfume, he quickly looks around the room
If you stare at someone long enough, you can make them look like anyone
On the TV, there's the Boss, he's singing like he bears the cross of all of those who've loved and lost and had to start again

Statues held in stone embrace, he feels the red flush cross his face
And if you give your heart away, you're never ever gonna get it back
In the frame, her face is still
His memory moves in for the kill
And what he had but never will is all he needs tonight

Oh - what is it you're reaching for?
Oh - what is it you're running at speed towards?

He calls her but the line is tied, the radio renews his pride
He knows she's gonna think of him each time she hears this song
And this his how his story goes, and how it ends up, well nobody knows
And in the midst of night's dark throes, well he can feel the miles

Oh - tell me what you're reaching for?
Oh - tell me what you're running at speed towards?

Well I hope it's not too little, and too late
All I want is to make up for my mistakes
I know I didn't listen when you needed me to
I know I never cared enough to hear you through
Maybe I'll never know how to give you what you need
But if you need me, let me know and I'll come running at speed

All I want is to get through
All I want is to get through
All I want is you
