Desert plain contains the flame
Land boom, so why complain
Cry wolf and no one scares
These are surely some common years

I'd cry myself every time she'd speak
Hope to die such was her mystique
Now she tries and falls to hold back her tears
Say goodbye to our common years

We had everything
In our memory
We had everything
But we just couldn't see
We had everything
In what the future was supposed to be
We had everything
Everything

True love within our scope
Is this romantic hope?
A schoolboy's dream
That no one shares?
I'm holding out for the common years

I'm looking out the window of a German car
I'm looking through the prism of a cracked fruit jar
I'm halfway laughing at all these fears
And the things that we all gotta face
And I'm looking out the window at the common years

Going someplace
Going someplace
Going someplace
Going someplace

These are surely some common years
These are surely some common years

Going someplace
Going someplace
