| Say farewell
|
| And kiss the life goodbye
|
| It’s ended
|
| 'Cause no one here can tell
|
| They let it pass them by
|
| The stolen tears they cry
|
| They send it
|
| Every waking hour
|
| That keeps you away
|
| In some other place
|
| Every weeping flower
|
| To touch your face
|
| Makes you dream
|
| Of long forgotten songs
|
| From where you belong
|
| Night after night
|
| When the devil’s come closer
|
| Shadows appear on the run
|
| Well, you hope and you pray
|
| You can’t wait till it’s over
|
| Angels of mercy won’t come
|
| Things don’t change
|
| But in some other life
|
| Well, maybe
|
| It wouldn’t be so strange
|
| To question what feels right
|
| There’s nothing black or white
|
| It’s crazy
|
| And when the heavens fall
|
| The father and son and the holy ghost
|
| Yeah, they’re
|
| They’re up against the wall
|
| They’ll cry the most
|
| You shoot them down
|
| And treasure each new day
|
| Find no other way
|
| Night after night
|
| When the devil’s come closer
|
| Shadows appear on the run
|
| Well, you hope and you pray
|
| You can’t wait till it’s over
|
| Angels of mercy won’t come
|
| No desert sun burns brighter
|
| No wind could blow as strong
|
| No chains will hold you tighter
|
| Or carry you along
|
| Night after night
|
| When the devil’s come closer
|
| Shadows appear on the run
|
| Well, you hope and you pray
|
| You can’t wait till it’s over
|
| Angels of mercy won’t come
|
| And then night after night
|
| When the devil’s come closer
|
| Shadows appear on the run
|
| Well, you hope and you pray
|
| You can’t wait till it’s over
|
| Angels of mercy won’t come |
