Walking Through the Ruins Songtext

von Split Enz

Walking through the ruins
Ever since my girl smashed it down
Yeah, I'm walking through the ruins
Well I don't know what I'm doing
I'm just walking through the ruins of love

My will is broken, there's no escaping
I'm dragging my feet through the dust and rubble of our love
We build cathedrals to ransack and pillage
Religiously smash them all down

Walking through the ruins
Ever since my girl pulled it down
Yeah, I'm walking through the ruins
Well I don't know what I'm doing

I'm just walking through the ruins of love

Sunlight is streaming through columns and pillars
Come out in the open, the walls have fallen down
Snap of her fingers, crack goes the ceiling
I'm feeling broken inside

Walking through the ruins
Ever since my girl smashed it down
Yeah, I'm walking through the ruins
Well I'm walking through the ruins of love ..?.. the chance to say
I don't know what I'm doing,
I'm just walking through the ruins of love
(okay)

Walking through the ruins
Ever since my girl smashed it down
Yeah I'm walking through the ruins
Yeah I know I could forget if I could only get away
Walking through the ruins every minute every day
I don't know what I'm doing
I'm just walking through the ruins of love...(yeah)
