| I went too far, yes I came too close
|
| I drove away the one that I loved the most
|
| Now I ride the tide on a boat made of sand
|
| I’m sailing for another to guide me to land
|
| And lead me into the night
|
| Please drive away the light
|
| Cause I’ve been blinded by glitter and gold
|
| My eyes need to rest from this light
|
| And sleep well at night
|
| I traveled east and I traveled west
|
| And I found a boy with a heart on his chest
|
| I ran a ground my ship left to rust
|
| Yes I found a guide in the city of lust
|
| To lead me into the night
|
| Oh, please drive away the light
|
| Although my mother will never understand
|
| I walk with him away from the light
|
| And into the night
|
| Oh you, you, you, it’s got to be you
|
| You, oh you, it’s got to be you
|
| True, true, it’s true, it’s got to be you
|
| You, oh you, it’s got to be you
|
| To lead me into the night
|
| Well, I went too far and I came too close
|
| I drove away the first one and now he’s a ghost
|
| And I went adrift on a boat made of sand
|
| It was leaking like a sieve but I made it to land
|
| He leads me into the night
|
| He drives away the light
|
| He makes the darkness seem bright
|
| And walks with me into the night
|
| Away from the light |
