[00:23.000]The city’s calling
[00:26.507]The city’s calling me home
[00:30.056]The lines and creases around my eyes, oh how they have grown
[00:37.148]I’m singing stories about the twenty-odd years before the fall
[00:45.176]
[00:47.886]And looking back I see they’re the happiest times of all
[00:52.052]I’ll be there through fading colours
[00:55.323]I’ll be there to brighten up your darkest day
[00:59.432]I’ll be there when you run for cover and I’ll carry you home now
[01:03.822]I’ll carry you home now
[01:06.281]I’ll be there in your golden summers
[01:09.436]I’ll be there when you’re bending and you’re ready to break
[01:16.419]So take a chance on me now and I’ll always be your powerplay
[01:20.9821]
[01:23.253]I’ve heard a silence
[01:26.931]I’ve heard a silence cut through
[01:30.574]Between opinions that left me broken and bruised
[01:37.480]We stole the shadows and then we danced in the dark upon the shore
[01:45.809]
[01:48.164]Now looking back I see no one ever could love me more
[01:52.185]
[01:52.806]I’ll be there through fading colours
[01:55.483]I’ll be there to brighten up your darkest day
[01:59.723]I’ll be there when you run for cover and I’ll carry you home now
[02:04.658]I’ll carry you home now
[02:06.910]I’ll be there in your golden summers
[02:10.709]I’ll be there when you’re bending and you’re ready to break
[02:16.804]So take a chance on me now and I’ll always be your powerplay
[02:20.981]
[02:26.110]I’ll always be your power play
[02:28.145]
[02:35.720]Tide turns with the worst of weathers
[02:39.082]Fire burns but the smoke, it fills your walls
[02:42.782]Be there to get your things together
[02:45.927]And be the parachute, the parachute to stop your fall
[02:49.922]Tide turns with the worst of weathers
[02:53.407]Fire burns and smoke, it fills your walls
[02:59.757]Now the past don’t mean a thing to us anymore
[03:03.674]
[03:03.992]I’ll be there through fading colours
[03:06.716]I’ll be there to brighten up your darkest day
[03:10.967]I’ll be there when you run for cover and I’ll carry you home now
[03:15.965]I’ll carry you home now
[03:18.023]I’ll be there in your golden summers
[03:21.545]I’ll be there when you’re bending and you’re ready to break
[03:27.637]So take a chance on me now and I’ll always be your powerplay

The city’s calling
The city’s calling me home
The lines and creases around my eyes, oh how they have grown
I’m singing stories about the twenty-odd years before the fall
And looking back I see they’re the happiest times of all
I’ll be there through fading colours
I’ll be there to brighten up your darkest day
I’ll be there when you run for cover and I’ll carry you home now
I’ll carry you home now
I’ll be there in your golden summers
I’ll be there when you’re bending and you’re ready to break
So take a chance on me now and I’ll always be your powerplay
I’ve heard a silence
I’ve heard a silence cut through
Between opinions that left me broken and bruised
We stole the shadows and then we danced in the dark upon the shore
Now looking back I see no one ever could love me more
I’ll be there through fading colours
I’ll be there to brighten up your darkest day
I’ll be there when you run for cover and I’ll carry you home now
I’ll carry you home now
I’ll be there in your golden summers
I’ll be there when you’re bending and you’re ready to break
So take a chance on me now and I’ll always be your powerplay
I’ll always be your power play
Tide turns with the worst of weathers
Fire burns but the smoke, it fills your walls
Be there to get your things together
And be the parachute, the parachute to stop your fall
Tide turns with the worst of weathers
Fire burns and smoke, it fills your walls
