Lyrics: Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark. Almost.

I'd travel, oh so far away
To be where you are
I'd travel there by car away
To be where you are

But if I get there I'd find
That I'd change my mind
It happens all the time
To a friend of mine

Always making statements
And moving step by step
Always acting theories
I will regret

My only consolation
In the things that I've done
Are the people who know me
And the objects I own

Happens all the time
To a friend of mine

Happens all the time
To a friend of mine

Happens all the time
To a friend of mine
...
