Top of the Big Slide

Lyrics

[Verse 1] How could you forget the place we chose? The hill above the town where the cold wind blows You said we'd go when the whole world cleared Now I'm waiting with the words I feared [Pre-Chorus] Come alone, don't make me ask you twice There's something I need to say tonight [Chorus] Meet me at the top of the big slide In Lanesborough, where we used to dream No friends, no audience, no alibis Just tell me what this really means I know there's someone on your side now But don't let that be how this ends Meet me at the top of the big slide And look me in the eye again [Verse 2] I kept the little promise in my coat The folded map, the note you wrote We drew our future with a borrowed pen Tell me, did you mean it then? [Pre-Chorus] Come alone, don't make me ask you twice There's something I need to say tonight [Chorus] Meet me at the top of the big slide In Lanesborough, where we used to dream No friends, no audience, no alibis Just tell me what this really means I know there's someone on your side now But don't let that be how this ends Meet me at the top of the big slide And look me in the eye again [Bridge] If it's over, say it plain Don't make me chase a borrowed name I can take the truth from you I just need to know what's true [Final Chorus] Meet me at the top of the big slide In Lanesborough, where we used to dream No friends, no audience, no alibis Just tell me what this really means I know there's someone on your side now So tell me where we stand as friends Meet me at the top of the big slide And let the silence reach its end [Outro] Come alone Let's talk it through
