[Verse 1]
Meet me in the morning
I'll have the motor running
Down frosty lanes, under a glass blue sky
This is living, this is living
[Pre-Chorus]
I haven't come to be a stranger
I haven't come to break your home
I haven't come to harm your children
I've come to be your love
[Chorus]
Don't let the grass grow under your feet
The sands of time keep running
For now at last I'm down on the street
With the engine running
[Verse 2]
Meet me in the evening
I'll have the log fire burning
Down icy lanes, under a darkening sky
This is living, this is living
[Pre-Chorus]
I haven't come to be a stranger
I haven't come to break your home
I haven't come to harm your children
I've come to be your love
[Chorus]
Don't let the grass grow under your feet
The sands of time keep running
For now at last I'm down on the street
With the engine running
[Verse 3]
Come to be your love
[Pre-Chorus]
I haven't come to be a stranger
I haven't come to break your home
I haven't come to harm your children
I've come to be your love
[Chorus]
Don't let the grass grow under your feet
The sands of time keep running
For now at last I'm down on the street
With the engine running (Come to be your love)
Don't let the grass grow under your feet
The sands of time keep running (Come to be your love)
For now at last I'm down on the street
With the engine running
Meet me in the morning
I'll have the motor running
Down frosty lanes, under a glass blue sky
This is living, this is living
[Pre-Chorus]
I haven't come to be a stranger
I haven't come to break your home
I haven't come to harm your children
I've come to be your love
[Chorus]
Don't let the grass grow under your feet
The sands of time keep running
For now at last I'm down on the street
With the engine running
[Verse 2]
Meet me in the evening
I'll have the log fire burning
Down icy lanes, under a darkening sky
This is living, this is living
[Pre-Chorus]
I haven't come to be a stranger
I haven't come to break your home
I haven't come to harm your children
I've come to be your love
[Chorus]
Don't let the grass grow under your feet
The sands of time keep running
For now at last I'm down on the street
With the engine running
[Verse 3]
Come to be your love
[Pre-Chorus]
I haven't come to be a stranger
I haven't come to break your home
I haven't come to harm your children
I've come to be your love
[Chorus]
Don't let the grass grow under your feet
The sands of time keep running
For now at last I'm down on the street
With the engine running (Come to be your love)
Don't let the grass grow under your feet
The sands of time keep running (Come to be your love)
For now at last I'm down on the street
With the engine running
