I’ll sing it one last time for you
Then we really have to go
You’ve been the only thing that’s right
In all I’ve doneAnd I can barely look at you
But every single time I do
I know we’ll make it anywhere
Away from hereLight up, light up
As if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I’ll be right beside you dearLouder louder
And we’ll run for our lives
I can hardly speak I understand
Why you can’t raise your voice to sayTo think I might not see those eyes
Makes it so hard not to cry
And as we say our long goodbye
I nearly doLight up…
Slower slower
We don’t have time for that
All I want is to find an easier way
To get out of our little headsHave heart my dear
We’re bound to be afraid
Even if it’s just for a few days
Making up for all this mess
*sniff, sniff*…B-AWLLLLL!! That was quite nice!! I thought I was over my leaking-eyes syndrome 🙂
Love it ….
It's lovely, isn't it? Even I can't help getting moist-eyed with ever play…
