I would walk with a hand at your back and you'd walk with your hand in my back pocket
And I would joke that you would steal my wallet, and you would laugh and you'd say, "No I wouldn't!"
And we could spend our hearts all over this town for nothing, oh we could spend our hearts all over this town for nothin'

We would stop for a drink later after we were tired of moving
And you would know someone in that tavern who could maybe tell us of this coming winter
And we could spill our wine all over this town for nothing, oh we could spill all over this town for nothing

Well maybe when we thought that it'd become quite easy, I would make a joke that was not funny
But sincerely quite offensive from the times when I was reckless
And we could scream our lungs out in this town for nothing, oh we could scream our lungs out in this town for nothing

Well maybe I should of set my goals much further than the likes of northern stars which do burn for just one night
Maybe I should have mentioned that I was not built for this kind of loving
But we're gonna chase each other around this town for nothing, oh we're gonna chase each other around this town for nothing
