Adrian Borland - Iron Years

We are lost in the iron years
Where time disappears before our very eyes
And don't say there's a time and place
For everyone who waits
It's a load of lies

Look where we are - tonight
Not near but far - tonight
A long way from Joy
We're a long way away

You are looking for a pair of eyes
Hoping to be hypnotised but it's a glance you steal
And Joy, sometimes it's just a word
Something that we have heard but don't get to feel
Look where we are - tonight
Not near but far - tonight
A long way from joy
We're a long way from joy
I know you well I know you gonna be there soon
I know you well I know you will be there soon

I'm on your side
A friend deep inside
Like the times we were so close to joy
We we're so close

I know you well I know you gonna get there
I know you well I know you will be there
