I recall
Wonder wall
At 3 in the morning
And love was dawning

Somewhere in the darkness

But I was wrong
You were gone
Before the sun's first light
Or night

In the twilight of your heart.

And I'm sitting in the room
We would fall asleep in
Where you told me It will be fine
If I ever leave you
It's cause I left the world behind
Silent in the shadow
Wondering if you chose
The day or the night. The rest or the fight
When you walked through twilight

And I missed out
On your doubts
And the heresies
The blues and bottles of brandy

On nights I couldn't turn in

And the faith
Scarred by the hate
Of men who can't see
Past themselves

To see there is no grey in the night

And I'm sitting in the room
We would fall asleep in
Where you told me It will be fine
If I ever leave you
It's cause I left the world behind
Silent in the shadows
Wondering if you chose
The day, or the night. The rest or the fight
When you walked through twilight.
Love Life Death
