Lover, lover, goodbye

So slowly goes the night

I trace the print of your body with my hand

Like the map of some forbidden land

I trace the ghosts of your bones

With my trembling hand

Dark is my night

But darker is my day yeah

I must've been blind

Out of my mind

Not to read the warning signs

How goes it?

It goes lonely

Goes slowly



So slowly goes the night

Ten lonely days, ten lonely nights

I watch the moon get flayed anew

Until the moom becomes the skinning tool

I send the skins of my sins out to cover and comfort you

I know of a Heaven

And honey I know of a Hell yeah

I hang my head

In my bed

And remember what you said

"One evening, I'm leaving"

And I laughed and checked her breathing

And said darling



Go slowly through the knight

O baby, I feel the heal of time

I wake to find you sitting here

Cutting tangels out of your hair

Singing a song that's all wrong

Hey, but that's alright, I don't care

O darling forgive me

For all the misery yeah

I embrace an empty space

And your laughing song it fades

Where goes it?

It goes some place

Where it's lonely



And black as the night

Come back, darling and put things right

I hang my head and cry cry cry

Darling, all night I try

To cease on a reason for this mad mad season

The nights, they are so long now

I can't remember it being light

Call it sleep, call it death, call it what you like

But only sleep, dear

Only sleep brings you back to life yeah

I hang my head

I toss and I sweat

I never never can forget

How goes it?

I'm going, but slowly slowly going

And we both know that it's gonna be alright



But it ain't you who has to cry cry cry

Ten lonely days, ten lonely nights

Since you left my side side side
