If Only by The Animators Lyrics
The sun is slowly sinking on the turnpike
The colour of the flares on the road
On the radio they say the driver jackknifed
And walked out across the marshes
The jetplane's on approach to the runway
Landing lights like pearls on a burn
When you never even knew where you came from
You can't return
If only you told me where we were going
If only you told me how I should feel
If only the crimes we'd done were made for these times
We'd be home by now
I was never any good at navigation
I could barely read a compass rose
And I never want to know the destination
Just that someone knows
If only you told me where we were going
If only you told me how I should feel
If only the crimes we'd done were made for these times
We'd be home by now
The colour of the flares on the road
On the radio they say the driver jackknifed
And walked out across the marshes
The jetplane's on approach to the runway
Landing lights like pearls on a burn
When you never even knew where you came from
You can't return
If only you told me where we were going
If only you told me how I should feel
If only the crimes we'd done were made for these times
We'd be home by now
I was never any good at navigation
I could barely read a compass rose
And I never want to know the destination
Just that someone knows
If only you told me where we were going
If only you told me how I should feel
If only the crimes we'd done were made for these times
We'd be home by now
