Written in Rock

On my way back from a wedding I drove round some of the old streets I got swept up by the memories Of cold nights and warm sheets I parked outside the house we'd lived in I tried to think of all the pain But all I remembered was the laughter And the precious trust we can't reclaim There are no second prizes And there will be no consolation wreath We may as well miss by a mile As miss by the skin of our teeth They all thought we were some sure thing I had the bloody coat and wedding ring But nothing's Written In Rock I know I'm not the one Was I just the great pretender Written In Rock There was no battle won Only a mutual surrender No guarantees, that's alright If I was gonna stay, I would have stayed all night Bye bye love, you were so damn right Nothing's Written In Rock Nothing's Written In Rock You finally learned the deep dark secret That I knew you were waiting for So I watched the death of innocence Of the young dreamer at life's door This world can tear your soul to pieces If you give it half a chance There are no rules to remember There are no written steps to the dance I don't believe in fate I don't believe in blind luck of the draw I don't believe in love I mean I don't believe anymore They all thought we were the real thing I had the bloody coat and the wedding ring But nothing's Written In Rock I know I'm not the one Was I just the great pretender Written In Rock There was no battle won Only a mutual surrender No guarantees, that's alright If I was gonna stay, I would have stayed all night Bye bye love, you were so damn right Nothing's Written In Rock Nothing's Written In Rock I remember you all dewy-eyed and breathless Pointing the direction to the great promised land I remember me all petrified and restless Wondering what you were hiding in the other hand Everybody keeps a lonely heart And everybody gets that feeling Everybody needs another heart To give a little bit of healing to a battered soul Oh, nothing's Written In Rock… Nothing's Written In Rock I know I'm not the one Was I just the great pretender Written In Rock There was no battle won Only a mutual surrender No guarantees, that's alright If I was gonna stay, I would have stayed all night Bye bye love, you were so damn right Nothing's Written In Rock Nothing's Written In Rock Oh, nothing's Written In Rock…
