1
00:00:01,520 --> 00:00:30,820
Are we leaving Rio?

2
00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:41,119
A bossa nova on the breeze

3
00:00:41,119 --> 00:00:47,200
We were in the backseat of a cab we couldn't afford

4
00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:54,619
You were holding my old rucksack on your knees

5
00:00:54,619 --> 00:01:00,479
You leaned towards the window to see the traffic up ahead

6
00:01:00,479 --> 00:01:04,980
These commuters here, you said

7
00:01:04,980 --> 00:01:10,280
Could be the walking dead

8
00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:14,359
And we vowed to guard our dreams

9
00:01:14,359 --> 00:01:17,760
From all the storms that lay ahead

10
00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:21,319
From the winds of fear and age

11
00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:22,700
Our compromise

12
00:01:22,700 --> 00:01:28,340
And we laughed about the hopelessness

13
00:01:28,340 --> 00:01:31,340
Of so many people's lives

14
00:01:31,340 --> 00:01:35,019
As we slowly moved

15
00:01:35,019 --> 00:01:41,640
Towards the changing lights

16
00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:55,189
It was near Les Avelides

17
00:01:55,189 --> 00:01:57,709
Or perhaps Trafalgar Square

18
00:01:57,709 --> 00:02:00,469
It was late at night

19
00:02:00,469 --> 00:02:03,769
The city was asleep

20
00:02:03,769 --> 00:02:08,289
You were clowning in the backseat

21
00:02:08,289 --> 00:02:11,270
With some friends we'd found somewhere

22
00:02:11,270 --> 00:02:17,590
The kind back then we'd always seemed to meet

23
00:02:17,590 --> 00:02:22,169
There were those in this great world you said

24
00:02:22,169 --> 00:02:24,889
Just faded to go far

25
00:02:24,889 --> 00:02:30,090
And among the lucky ones were we

26
00:02:30,090 --> 00:02:34,110
Inside that car

27
00:02:34,110 --> 00:02:45,969
and your friends began to sing when you wish upon a star and you clapped along like you didn't have

28
00:02:45,969 --> 00:02:57,870
a care but once i turned to glance at you as we drove across the square and your face looked

29
00:02:57,870 --> 00:03:15,750
Haunted in a changing light

30
00:03:15,750 --> 00:03:55,039
It was at last September, it was autumn more or less

31
00:03:55,039 --> 00:04:01,259
You were waiting to cross some busy boulevard

32
00:04:03,259 --> 00:04:08,539
Talking on your phone to your family, I guess

33
00:04:08,539 --> 00:04:14,699
Your briefcase tucked up high beneath your arm

34
00:04:14,699 --> 00:04:19,720
As I approached you turned around

35
00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:22,120
A question in your eye

36
00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:26,079
As though I might ignore you

37
00:04:26,079 --> 00:04:31,639
And just simply walk on by

38
00:04:31,639 --> 00:04:39,459
But we smiled and talked a while

39
00:04:39,459 --> 00:04:42,240
About each other's lives

40
00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:44,980
And once or twice

41
00:04:44,980 --> 00:04:48,220
I caught a wistful note

42
00:04:48,220 --> 00:04:52,600
Then you moved towards the crossing

43
00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:56,000
As the car slowed to a halt

44
00:04:56,000 --> 00:05:01,319
And we waved and parted

45
00:05:01,319 --> 00:05:08,740
Beneath the changing lights

46
00:05:08,740 --> 00:05:29,959
And we waved and parted

47
00:05:29,959 --> 00:05:36,360
Beneath the changing lights
