Avalon Or Someone Very Similar Lyrics
Avalon
How do these things happen?
Avalon
Tell me all you know
The perfect crime
We
Laughed about it
Laughed the whole night through
When
We recall
It was all because of you
Thinking 'bout all that we once knew
Avalon
The drop is falling back now
Avalon
We'd be here if we could
You used to say
The
Water's fine
Nevermind the view
I
Didn't mind
As long as I have you
Thinking 'bout all that we've been through
Some days, some days
We would be happy down
We cling, we cling
To the wild, wild, wild, world
We didn't know
The
Things we said
What turned all them true?
The
Day would come
You walk with someone new
And what about me?
Times have changed for me
And times have changed for you, for you
Looking back, all that we once knew
How do these things happen?
Avalon
Tell me all you know
We
Laughed about it
Laughed the whole night through
When
We recall
It was all because of you
Thinking 'bout all that we once knew
The drop is falling back now
Avalon
We'd be here if we could
The
Water's fine
Nevermind the view
I
Didn't mind
As long as I have you
Thinking 'bout all that we've been through
We would be happy down
We cling, we cling
To the wild, wild, wild, world
The
Things we said
What turned all them true?
The
Day would come
You walk with someone new
And what about me?
Times have changed for me
And times have changed for you, for you
Looking back, all that we once knew

This is my favorite song off the new album. I was surprised to see no one had posted the lyrics yet. And not just on SongMeanings -- I couldn't find them anywhere online. I don't know if these are 100% correct, so please offer suggestions if you hear different.
I personally heard "the perfect crime" instead of "imperfect cry" and the following "we, we recall" I think is "when we recall". And in the 4th verse, I heard "the water's fine, nevermind your view."

But most of the rest of the song, well, your guess is as good as mine.
