|
Won't you dry the tears from my eyes? |
|
Won't you walk me through the night? |
|
Won't you help me leave this stinking shadow behind? |
|
There's no story to tell, there's no magic |
|
I was given a life and I lived it |
|
I was given two hands and I used them |
|
I was given a heart and I lost it |
|
In your eyes |
|
But your eyes are gone |
|
But your eyes are gone into oblivion |
|
There's snow in the air and spring in the ground |
|
As we're dragging ourselves around and around |
|
And I'm laughing loud to melt the ice |
|
I play the clown again |
|
Somewhere in between the clouds |
|
Somewhere in this roundabout |
|
There's a voice that screams for life |
|
There is love and there is light |
|
In your eyes |
|
But your eyes are gone |
|
But your eyes are gone into oblivion |
|
How long? How long? |
|
You kick one off, you shoot one down |
|
Another one will come around |
|
My head is spinning, I try to stand still |
|
If you see me will you help me |
|
Say you will! |
|
'cause there's a monster inside |
|
And it sees through my eyes |
|
And it speaks through my mouth |
|
And it moves me around |
|
But there is calm |
|
In your eyes |
|
Time arrives in tidal waves |
|
It is washed across my face |
|
Like when I was a boy, back in the old days |
|
Like when every breath was uncertain |
|
I held my head up, I held it high |
|
I played my cards the best I could |
|
I thought you understood |
|
I thought you understood |
|
I thought you understood |
|
Every good thing could survive |
|
In your eyes |
|
But your eyes are gone |
|
But your eyes are gone into oblivion |
|
(Your eyes are gone into oblivion) |
|
Into oblivion |
|
(Your eyes are gone into oblivion) |
|
Into oblivion |
|
(Your eyes are gone into oblivion) |
|
Into oblivion |
|
(Your eyes are gone into oblivion) |
