No Return - Brakes

No Return Lyrics

I was searching through the record section
Of a shop in Birmingham
Trying to forget the newsBut 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 headI'd come across a compilation
Called 'Blues in a Minor Chord'
As though you were there behind meI'd turned it over to read the sleeve notes,
Credits in a daze
And a chill came up my spine'No Return' was its title
'No Return' like you'd said
'No Return', those piercing words
Tattered in my headAnd I'd said,
"The pain of being together
Is more than being apart"
I thought of you all December long

And now it's a New Year's start
"The loneliness of walking by your side
Is more than walking alone"
It's why I'm leavingI let out a hollow howling
Falling terribly
Like wind escaping from a tubeI think they call it coincidence
Or something like deja vu
You never believe it 'til it happens to you'No Return' was its title
'No Return' like we'd said
'No Return', like icicles
Falling through our headsAnd I'd said,
"The pain of being together
Is more than being apart"
I thought of you all December long
And now it's a New Year's start
"The loneliness of walking by your side
Is more than walking alone"
It's why I'm leavingIt's why I'm leaving
It's why I'm leaving
It's why I'm leaving...
