"Academic" lyrics

There was a time when my world belonged with you
But I was so misguided in my youth
I couldn't help, but drink this poison brew
You had a strange perception of the truth

Oh baby, I remember you
Oh baby, I remember you

'Cause your heart is cold and your blood runs dry
You'll never see or hear the crashing of the sea
The tempers rise, this stops all time
When lovers' eyes are locked in harmony

I was aware that danger lay ahead
And I couldn't bear this stranger in my head
Have you got a face (have you got a face), have you got a soul
Well, he ain't got nothing, not even a hole

I gave a try a long time ago
When your fate was designed, but you didn't know
Oh baby, I remember you

'Cause your heart is cold and your blood runs dry
You'll never see or hear the crashing of the sea
The tempers rise, that stops all time
When lovers' eyes are locked in harmony

'Cause your heart is cold and your blood runs dry
You'll never see or hear the crashing of the sea
The tempers rise, that stops all time
When lovers' eyes are locked in harmony

Da da da da da
Da da da da da da
Da da da da da da da da
