Melbourne

I saw the sign say ‘Euclid’                     
And I knew you were taking me home
Never thought I’d be spending
The rest of this night alone

And I can’t help but wonder                    
What I had done or said                    
To bring this long awaited evening                
To this untimely end

How could we end this way?                    
Thought we’d work it out tonight                
But it’s not even 9 o’clock                    
And we’ve said our good nights                

Pretty city disappears                        
As we’re winding up the hill
We stop and wait for the green light
Everything is still

Except for my heard pounding                    
All the way up to the sky                    
The new start I’d been hoping for                
Will soon end with this ride                    
       
How could we end this way                    
Thought we’d work it out tonight                
But it’s not even 9 o’clock                    
And we’ve said our good nights

How could we let this go                
Thought we’d start again tonight                
There’s so much I never got to say                
But now it’s all too late

And the last thing I hear you say                 
As I’m fumbling for my keys                    
Is ‘I know how you hate goodbyes’                
Well don’t do me the favour please
