I Never Wanted To Begin (2008 Remaster)

I Never Wanted to Begin (2008 Remaster) - Ultravox

Shadows cut across as

Stolen promises were broke

We wound our watch to stretch the time

In case that no-one got the joke

I never wanted to begin

Name that sin

Name that sin

Dim and distant kisses chill

Before I catch my death

Etch every name upon the door

And note the ones who never rest

We never knew who'd be within

Name that sin

Name that sin

Shattered captains climbing

Gates to hold new lamps of fame

For mad kings rowing over lakes

Connecting rooms in black sedans

They never wanted to begin

Name that sin

Name that sin

Evidence is stripped and torn

And hidden in the minds

The negatives have all

Been fogged and blurred

Reduced a thousand times

We never wanted to fall in

Name that sin

Name that sin

Name that sin

Name that sin

Name that sin

Name that sin

Name that sin

Name that sin
