|
Say farewell |
|
And kiss the life goodbye |
|
It's ended |
|
'Cause no one here can tell |
|
They let it pass them by |
|
The stolen tears they cry |
|
They send it |
|
Every waking hour |
|
That keeps you away |
|
In some other place |
|
Every weeping flower |
|
To touch your face |
|
Makes you dream |
|
Of long forgotten songs |
|
From where you belong |
|
Night after night |
|
When the devil's come closer |
|
Shadows appear on the run |
|
Well, you hope and you pray |
|
You can't wait till it's over |
|
Angels of mercy won't come |
|
Things don't change |
|
But in some other life |
|
Well, maybe |
|
It wouldn't be so strange |
|
To question what feels right |
|
There's nothing black or white |
|
It's crazy |
|
And when the heavens fall |
|
The father and son and the holy ghost |
|
Yeah, they're |
|
They're up against the wall |
|
They'll cry the most |
|
You shoot them down |
|
And treasure each new day |
|
Find no other way |
|
Night after night |
|
When the devil's come closer |
|
Shadows appear on the run |
|
Well, you hope and you pray |
|
You can't wait till it's over |
|
Angels of mercy won't come |
|
No desert sun burns brighter |
|
No wind could blow as strong |
|
No chains will hold you tighter |
|
Or carry you along |
|
Night after night |
|
When the devil's come closer |
|
Shadows appear on the run |
|
Well, you hope and you pray |
|
You can't wait till it's over |
|
Angels of mercy won't come |
|
And then night after night |
|
When the devil's come closer |
|
Shadows appear on the run |
|
Well, you hope and you pray |
|
You can't wait till it's over |
|
Angels of mercy won't come |
