|
When the river don't run and the night won't fall |
|
When I fear the touch of the highway's call |
|
When I close my eyes and the dreams won't come |
|
When the world has set me free, will you still be with me, my loverman? |
|
When the moon turns red and the sun burns black |
|
When the reaper's whip, falls across my back |
|
Will you lay me down on a bed of stone? |
|
In that long and silent sleep, will you be with me? |
|
What if I just go flying away? |
|
What would you say? |
|
Would you wait a million years? |
|
Would you cry a million tears for me? |
|
Or would you take my hand? |
|
Would you fly away with me? |
|
Or would you be with me, loverman? |
|
When the hour glass is broken |
|
And the final word is spoken |
|
When fate has lost its power |
|
This word will still be ours |
|
Loverman, oh, my loverman, yeah |
|
What if I just go flying away? |
|
What would you say? |
|
Would you steal me from the cold? |
|
Would you lead me to my soul again? |
|
And when we reach the end, when we face eternity |
|
Would you be with me, my loverman? |
|
Oh, loverman, yeah |
|
When the river don't run and the night won't fall |
|
When I fear the touch of the highway's call |
|
When I close my eyes and the dreams won't come |
|
And the world has set me free, yeah |
|
When the moon turns red and the sun burns black |
|
When the reaper's whip across my back |
|
Will you lay me down? Will you lay me down on a bed of stone? |
|
In that long and silent sleep |
|
Loverman, loverman, oh, loverman |
|
Loverman, yeah |
|
Loverman, yeah |
