|
Was he with you at the railway |
|
Did he cradle all your pain |
|
Did he show to you the best way |
|
To make it all right again |
|
Now there was reason in your madness |
|
You weighed your loss against my gain |
|
If he was with you at the railway |
|
Would you do it all again |
|
Mea culpa |
|
I can't stay here no longer |
|
Mea, mea culpa |
|
My time here is up |
|
So goodbye, goodbye and good luck |
|
Was he with you on that journey |
|
When you could have still turned back |
|
Did he reason with you sternly |
|
Did he try to make your resolve crack |
|
Did he hold the only candle |
|
When your whole bright sky turned black |
|
Was he with you at the railway |
|
As you climbed onto the track |
|
Mea culpa |
|
I can't stay here no longer |
|
Mea, mea culpa |
|
My time here is up |
|
So goodbye, goodbye and good luck |
|
Did he guide you across the threshold? |
|
Did he cup you in his hands? |
|
Did he drink you down like water? |
|
Or blow you into air like sand? |
|
Is he standing right beside you? |
|
Did it work out how you planned? |
|
Is the sunlight shining on you? |
|
Are we saved or are we damned? |
|
Mea culpa |
|
I can't stay here no longer |
|
Mea, mea culpa |
|
My time here is up |
|
So goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye and good luck |
