We are lost in the iron years 
Where time disappears before our very eyes 
And don't say there's a time and place 
For everyone who waits 
It's a load of lies 

Look where we are - tonight 
Not near but far - tonight 
A long way from Joy 
We're a long way away 

You are looking for a pair of eyes 
Hoping to be hypnotised but it's a glance you steal 
And Joy, sometimes it's just a word 
Something that we have heard but don't get to feel
Look where we are - tonight 
Not near but far - tonight 
A long way from joy 
We're a long way from joy 
I know you well I know you gonna be there soon 
I know you well I know you will be there soon 

I'm on your side 
A friend deep inside 
Like the times we were so close to joy 
We we're so close 

I know you well I know you gonna get there 
I know you well I know you will be there
