lyrics
I spent the year recovering
Alone in the hills above Todmorden
My burned out heart still smouldering
From the flames of the fire that burned down our home
I spent the years of pestilence
Alone in the forest of my brain
Afraid of the shapes and the silhouettes
Against the threatening flames in the distance
I waited for you
And waited for you
And waited for you
To come
The moors were on fire in the summer
They looked rusty and tired by the autumn
They shrivelled and died in the winter months
And then came alive in the spring time
So I walked to the place where our love had died
I was finally ready to say goodbye
But you'd already left here a year ago
So I knew I'd be fine so I walked on home
I waited for you
And waited for you
And waited for you
To come
I waited for you
And waited for you
And waited for you
To come
Alone in the hills above Todmorden
My burned out heart still smouldering
From the flames of the fire that burned down our home
I spent the years of pestilence
Alone in the forest of my brain
Afraid of the shapes and the silhouettes
Against the threatening flames in the distance
I waited for you
And waited for you
And waited for you
To come
The moors were on fire in the summer
They looked rusty and tired by the autumn
They shrivelled and died in the winter months
And then came alive in the spring time
So I walked to the place where our love had died
I was finally ready to say goodbye
But you'd already left here a year ago
So I knew I'd be fine so I walked on home
I waited for you
And waited for you
And waited for you
To come
I waited for you
And waited for you
And waited for you
To come
