No Return Songtext
von Brakes

I was searching through the record section of a shop in Birmingham
Trying to forget the news
But you know how things sometimes are
The fates conspire to remind you

No Return was its title
No Return, like I′d said
No Return, those searing words burning in my head

I'd come across a compilation called Blues in a Minor Chord
As though you were there behind me
I turned it over to read the sleeve notes, credits and dates
And a chill came up my spine

No Return was its title
No Return, like you′d said
No Return, those piercing words tattooed in my head


And that said
The pain of being together is more than being apart
I've thought of you all December long and now it's a New Year start
The loneliness of walking by your side is more than walking alone
It′s why I′m leaving

I let out a hollow howling, voluntarily
Like wind escaping from a tomb
I think they call it coincidence or something like déjà vu
You never believe it till it happens to you

No Return was its title
No Return, like we'd said
No Return, like icicles falling through our heads

And that said
The pain of being together is more than being apart
I′ve thought of you all December long and now it's a New Year start
The loneliness of walking by your side is more than walking alone

It′s why I'm leaving
It′s why I'm leaving
It's why I′m leaving
