Catherine stands by the iron gate
Watching the shadows growing long and late
Adam is waiting where the rivers meet
Far from the whispers on the quiet street
They say our names shouldn't cross the line
They say your hand shouldn't hold onto mine
Oh, Adam, let the world fade away
No matter what the bitter voices say
They call it a sin,
they build up the wall
But Catherine is waiting to catch you
if you
fall
(ooh, if you fall)
Two different houses on a divided
hill
But when we meet the heavy air is still
Adam, your touch is the only truth I find
Leaving the anger of the world behind
Oh, Adam, let the world fade away
No matter what the bitter voices say
They call it a sin,
they build up the wall
But Catherine is waiting to catch you
if you fall
(oh, if you fall)
Where the rivers meet...
Just Catherine
and Adam... (mmmmm)
