[intro: atmospheric with creeping synth melody over the full repeating chord hook: G Bm Em G A F#m F#] [Verse 1] I wandered all night On empty streets Gnawing day by day Its breath on my neck In a misty, wet street Lying on the stones I touched your shoulder I shuddered suddenly [Chorus] The world stopped In your absence, in your absence That same feeling That same illusion The world stopped In your absence, in your absence That same feeling That same illusion [Verse 2] The wind, the wind is a compass I was swept to its shore Far from eyes Its breath on my neck In a misty, wet street Lying on the stones I touched your shoulder I shuddered suddenly [Chorus] The world stopped In your absence, in your absence That same feeling That same illusion The world stopped In your absence, in your absence That same feeling That same illusion [Chorus] The world stopped In your absence, in your absence That same feeling That same illusion The world stopped In your absence, in your absence That same feeling That same illusion [outro: fading into long reverb tails on the chord hook]
