I stood in this sunsheltered place 'Til I could see the face behind the face All that had gone before had left no trace Down by the railway siding In the secret world, we were colliding And all the places we were hiding love What was it we were thinking of? So I watched you wash your hair Underwater, unaware And the plane flies through the air Did you think you didn't have to choose it That I alone could win or lose it In all the places we were hiding love What was it we were thinking of? In this house of make believe Divided in two, like Adam and Eve You put out and I receive Down by the railway siding In our secret world, we were colliding In all the places we were hiding love What was it we were thinking of? And the world is turning round and round The house is crumbling but the stairways stand With no guilt no shame, no sorrow or blame Whatever it is, we are all the same Making it up in our secret world Shaking it up in our secret world Breaking it up Making it up in our secret world Seeing things that were not there On a wing and on a prayer In this state of disrepair Down by the railway siding In our secret world, we were colliding In all the places we were hiding love What was it we were thinking of? What was it we were thinking of?
