I wonder where you are and how you feel
It's not being together, it's just following the rules
When I see you again as I always do
I like the coastal cities, I like the lights
It's just following the rules, no one's a fool
And the spirits are ruthless with the paths they choose
I didn't speak the language, but somehow I knew
No one's a fool
It appears to me that destiny rules
Maybe your arms are not supposed to go around me
Like a diamond snake in a black sky
When I see you again as I always do
I hear about you now and then
Maybe our paths are not supposed to cross twice
No one's a fool
And the spirits are ruthless with the paths they choose
Just to make sure that I can still feel you
It appears to me that destiny rules
Six weeks in a foreign country, how the time flew
Just to make sure that you were real
I like the way the city blends into the ocean at night
It's not being together, it's just following the rules
It's not being together, it's just following the rules
We said, "We'd never come home"
No one's a fool
When I see you again as I always do
It's just following the rules, no one's a fool
And the spirits are ruthless with the paths they choose
That, that would be the only time that we could be alone and foolish
Sometimes I walk by and I look up to your balcony
It appears to me that destiny rules
It's just following the rules, no one's a fool
It's like living on a working river, the coastline is glittering
