Lyrics

[Chorus]
Whoa-whoa, whoa-oh
Whoa-whoa, whoa-oh
How come you never go there?
How come I'm so alone there?
Whoa-whoa, whoa-oh
Whoa-whoa, whoa-oh
How come you never go there?
How come I'm so alone there?
[Verse 1]
I went up to a window
Lightning banging on the cymbals
I ripped into the night
Came storm into your eyes
[Verse 2]
My horse had worked the fields too long
My bear had lost its innate calm
It's true enough we're not at peace
But peace is never what it seems
[Verse 3]
Our love is not the light it was
When I walk inside the dark, I'm calm
Where we look for where we went
It's only echoes in the melody
[Chorus]
Whoa-whoa, whoa-oh
Whoa-whoa, whoa-oh
How come you never go there?
How come I'm so alone there?
[Chorus]
How come you never go there?
How come I'm so alone there?
[Verse 4]
We waste time on blame and weak revenge
Waste energy and projections
We're living proof, we gotta let go
And stop looking through the halo
[Verse 5]
We carry on as if our time is through
You carry on as if I don't love you
And so we find the way is out
To cut the heart out of the doubt now
[Verse 6]
The room's full but hearts are empty
Like the letters, never sent me
Your words are like a lasso
You're an instrumental tune
[Chorus]
Whoa-whoa, whoa-oh
Whoa-whoa, whoa-oh
How come you never go there?
How come I'm so alone there?
Whoa-whoa, whoa-oh
Whoa-whoa, whoa-oh
How come you never go there?
How come I'm so alone there?
Whoa-whoa, whoa-oh
Whoa-whoa, whoa-oh
How come you never go there?
How come I'm so alone there?
Whoa-whoa, whoa-oh
Whoa-whoa, whoa-oh
How come you never go there?
How come I'm so alone there?
