Tahiti 80: "Aftermath" Lyrics

I first saw it when you were smiling

I could tell something was wrong

And the way you were laughing

It just lasted too long

As if you were trying hard

To pretend everything was fine

When I knew deep in my heart

That it was all just falling apart

Let's run away from the path

We used to take each day

And then we'll face the aftermath

Of our yesterdays

Is it me or are we really

Going out of our minds?

I'd never thought I would be

Somebody not so kind

I don't want to bring you down

But there's no one else around

It's like walking in a ghost town

Or living six feet under ground

Let's run away from the path

We used to take each day

And then we'll face the aftermath

Of our yesterdays

That's what I'd love to say

I know I'll find a way

Let's run away from the path

We used to take each day

And then we'll face the aftermath

Of our yesterdays
