A Leaving Song |
Take me up, my only love |
For my body is tired |
I want a night to feel cool |
Against a skin which is bruised |
And my heavy heart to rise |
Speak to me, my only love |
Because I can’t be alone |
Oh, I need you to talk about |
Your days, passing thoughts |
Pretend that we’re still young |
Well, we are, we are not gone! |
Sing to me the leaving song |
Because I’m not coming back |
Oh, the ghosts in this town |
Are dragging us down |
And I want to feel alive |
I want to feel alive! |
So won’t you save me tonight |
From this world and it’s own fire |
You know my heart and my soul are bursting with desire |
So burn all our sea and all the dreams, the scent of |
Our fears to admire underneath |
So won’t you leave with me in body and soul? |
Anywhere that we don’t know |
Anywhere that please, won’t break my heart |
And anywhere that we might breathe |
And anywhere that they can’t see |
And anywhere that please, won’t break my heart |
And anywhere that we can rest |
And have our thoughts in the sunset |
And anywhere that please, won’t break my heart |
