Ultravox - When the Scream Subsides

And we talk (and we talk)
Just the two of us
All the time (all the time)
Nothing serious
We pretend (we pretend)
Time was on our side
Till the end (till the end)
When the scream subsides

Yes, we had it all, had the key gripped in our hands
We could see the fall as the martyr understands
When the chorus calls there's no room for hope inside
Lose it all when the scream subsides

And we talk (and we talk)
Just the two of us
All the time (all the time)
Nothing serious
We pretend (we pretend)
Time was on our side
Till the end (till the end)
When the scream subsides

Yes we took the role of the lovers and the friends
And we played our parts till the words came to an end
But the tongues were tied in the passion and the pride
Waste it all when the scream subsides

And we talk
All the time
We pretend
Till the end

And we talk (and we talk)
Oh, just the two of us
All the time (all the time)
Nothing serious
We pretend (we pretend)
Time was on our side
Till the end (till the end)
When the scream subsides

And we talk (and we talk)
Just the two of us
All the time (all the time)
Nothing serious
We pretend (we pretend)
Time was on our side
Till the end (till the end)
Till the scream subsides
