Intro: Ribbon of the river by my side I walk the shore and watch it unwind The railway tracks still leave a glimpse of the light From the train, trailing sparks of gold behind And as soon as you've seen it, it's gone And as soon as you've seen it it's gone Secrets of the city Make an aching in my heart And the mysteries that tease me so I long to belong but I always have to go People stare and wonder why I stray They don't understand that wandering's my way I'll never stop, though time's slipping away The elusive light, shining strange on my face And as soon as you've seen it, it's gone And as soon as you've seen it, it's gone Secrets of the city Make an aching in my heart And the mysteries that tease me so I long to belong, but I always have to go Hope ties me up with discontent Since the day I first went Yearning to be back again How will I return, and when? Secrets of the city Make an aching in heart And the mysteries that tease me so I long to belong but I always have to go **** Thank you for reading! Please rate and comment! I hope I got this right, it's my first one. I couldn't find any chords for this song, so I decided to transcribe it for you. --Hatter ****
