Editors - Barricades
How long could you wait
For someone you love?
Just looking for the tunnels of light
Coming down from above
I was waiting by the phone
The moment you called the moment you caved
Just tell me all your secrets and lies
Your barricades
When it gets dark, the streets and the youth
Holding me back from falling
Through tunnels of light emitted for you
I was waiting by the phone
The moment you called the moment you caved
Where would I be without your secrets and lies
Your barricades
Don't run away, don't run away, don't run away, don't run away
Just barricade now
Don't run away, don't run away, don't run away, don't run away
Just barricade now
Oh!
A memory of you plucked from the pool
Just tell me have I met you before
Did we play the fool?
Serenade me while I sleep
Ripple the walls, keep us out of sight
My memory's playing tricks and games
The madness you loved, the tunnels of light
Don't run away, don't run away, don't run away, don't run away
Just barricade now
Don't run away, don't run away, don't run away, don't run away
Just barricade now
Oh!
Don't run away, don't run away, don't run away, don't run away
Just barricade now
Don't run away, don't run away, don't run away, don't run away
Just barricade now
Oh!
Don't run away now, just barricade now
Don't run away, don't run away, don't run away, don't run away
Just barricade now
(Don't run away now, don't run away now)
Don't run away, don't run away, don't run away, don't run away
Just barricade now
Oh!
Don't run away, don't run away, don't run away, don't run away
Just barricade now
(Don't run away now, don't run away now)
Don't run away, don't run away, don't run away, don't run away
Just barricade now
Oh!
How long could you wait
For someone you love?
Just looking for the tunnels of light
Coming down from above
