The city streets are wet again with rain
But I'm walking just the same
Skies turn to the usual grey
When you turn to face the day
And love don't show up in the pavement cracks
All my watercolours fade to black
I'm going nowhere and I'm ten steps back
All my dreams have fallen flat

Time and space will pass us by and by
When we don't see eye to eye
I would have done anything
For happiness to bring
Oh oh oh oh
But it don't show up in the pavement cracks
I can't even recognise my tracks
You and I can't turn the whole thing back
Ooh I wish you well

How come every day
I'm still waiting for the change?
How come I still say
Give me strength to live?

(Love don't show in the pavement cracks
There will be no turning back)

Oh oh oh oh
But it don't show up in the pavement cracks
I can't even recognise my tracks
You and I can't turn the whole thing back
Ooh I wish you well
