If we were to stay here Would it really be so bad Sitting here all afternoon Well you'd probably lose your job The world would gradually turn round Aeroplanes fly by Every three minutes or so Birds land on the water It's already time to go Why's it always time to go? When I really want to stay I always seem to be walking away It's plain to see That you and me We've got different reasons To be stealing beauty I know it should feel wrong But it seems right to me We'll swim out to the island A silver comet in the sky They'll come and try to find us Still that's where we're going to hide The boats are banging in the dock When I really want to stay I always seem to be walking away It's easy to see There'll be someone for you Who won't let you hang around with me But until that day I'll spend my time Just thinking up ways to be stealing beauty It's plain to see That you and me We've got different reasons To be stealing beauty I know it should feel wrong But it seems right to me Right to me... right to me...
