Long ago
Just like the hearse, you died to get in again
We are so far from youBurning on
Just like a match you strike to incinerate
The lives of everyone you knowAnd what's the worst to take
(Worst you take)
From every heart you break
(Heart you break)
And like a blade you stain
(Blade you stain)
Well, I've been holding on tonightWhat's the worst that I could say?
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long and goodnightCame a time
When every star fall
Brought you to tears again
We are the very hurt you soldAnd what's the worst you take
(Worst you take)
From every heart you break
(Heart you break)
And like the blade you stain
(Blade you stain)
Well, I've been holding on tonightWhat's the worst that I could say?
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long and goodnightWell, if you carry on this way
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long and goodnightCan you hear me?
Are you near me?
Can we pretend?
To leave and then
We'll meet again
When both our cars collideWhat's the worst that I could say?
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long and goodnightWell, if you carry on this way
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long and goodnight
