Lyrics The Ballad - Blur

I just looked to my life
And all I saw was that you're not coming back
Oh, can't you see
When the ballad comes for you
It comes like me?

But I won't be afraid
I can't seem to find you in this midnight parade
I know it's all true
When the ballad comes for me
It comes like you

Up close, I fell in love with you
(I met you at an early show)
You fall in, I'll fall along with you
(We travelled 'round the world together)

I just looked out to the point
Where the words, they are hitting me in a full-on assault
Oh, can't you see
When the ballad comes for you
It comes like me?

Well, I know, can't change the times
I know I'm already breaking when I look into your eyes
Oh, can't you see
When the ballad comes for you (ballad comes)
It comes like me?

Up close (up close), I fell in love with you
(I met you at an early show)
You fall (you fall, you fall), I'll fall along with you
(We travelled 'round the world together)
