Cinnamon Blonde by Martin Newell Lyrics

Time slows and the shadows close
When you lose a rose
In the ides of cold September
Time was I was strong because
I could claim I was
And you smiled, do you remember?
You said that I was streets ahead
I had nothing on you

Long-gone cinnamon blonde
Long-gone cinnamon blonde
When you see that the nights are turning
Think of me with my lights still burning
Long-gone cinnamon blonde
Always light years beyond
As I leafed through my wasted pages
You were already gone

Once more, like a ship-to-shore
When I pass your door
I can never forget the way
You said I'd be your lullaby
And I wanted to try
But we just couldn't make it
You said that I was streets ahead
I had nothing on you
Long-gone cinnamon blonde
Long-gone cinnamon blonde
When you see that the nights are turning
Think of me with my lights still burning
Long-gone cinnamon blonde
Always light years beyond
As I leafed through my wasted pages
You were already gone
Cinnamon blonde

Long-gone cinnamon blonde
Long-gone cinnamon blonde
When you see that the nights are turning
Think of me with my lights still burning
Long-gone cinnamon blonde
Always light years beyond
As I leafed through my wasted pages
You were already gone
