You build it up and tear it down
There's no reason to follow you
You left the song without a sound
You left the story I made for you
Softly angels bow and cry
In the stillness of the nightNever is a long time, goodbye
No answers for the asking
It's a long time, goodbye
No mercy for the achingIt's a long time
Oh, I see no light on the forsaken
Never is a long time, goodbye
Let's spend the night
When this dream has come to an endSometimes you laugh, sometimes you cry
And yes, I've cried over you
You've left me blind in paradise
Yeah, you left me hungering for the touch of you
Snow white angels run and hide
In the blackness of the nightYeah, never is a long time, goodbye
No answers for the asking
It's a long time, goodbye
No mercy for the achingIt's a long time
Oh, I see no light on the forsaken
Never is a long time, goodbye
Let's spend the night
When this dream has come to an endNever is a long time
Oh, never is a long time
Oo, never is a long time
