Lyrics

She's walking down the streets
she used to know so well,
she's walking in her memories
like she's under a spell.

CHORUS: And the city is a dreamer
and the world is on its best behaviour once again.
And there is no one bleeding,
there is no one left on the platform, deserted.

She sits down at bar counter
and orders their favourite drink.
She can hear his soft laughter,
she can feel her hand in his.

CHORUS: And the world is their oyster,
the night is young and they can do whatever they please.
And there is no one hurting,
there is no one left for someone else, defeated.

Bridge: She stays a while in that perfect spot,
that arrow through the heart was such a perfect shot.

CHORUS: And the city is a dreamer
and the world is on its best behaviour once again.
And there is no one bleeding,
there is no one left on the platform, deserted.

And the world is their oyster,
the night is young and they can do whatever they please.
And there is no one hurting,
there is no one left for someone else, defeated.

tag: As she leaves, she thinks:
"Gotta hand it to him,
it was a perfect shot,
but it's time to move on."
