Caught in time the king of hearts
He laid it on the greenery and broke my heart
Like cityscapes and pretty things
Like old guitars with broken strings

Oh for a day in the sun in this town
Drinking with you with our friends all around
Oh like a breeze on a hill made of sand
All through the night held the world in my hands

I know it well tricky hands
I heard it on the radio in far off lands
Like cityscapes and pretty things
Like old guitars with broken strings

I love these streets i call my home
Though i know them well there are still unknowns
Oh for a day in the sun in this town

Drinking with you with our friends all around
Oh like a breeze on a hill made of sand
All through the night held the world in my hands
