Slowly Goes The Night

<br>Lover, lover, goodbye<br>So slowly goes the night<br>I trace the print of your body with my hand<br>Like the map of some forbidden land<br>I trace the ghosts of your bones<br>With my trembling hand<br>Dark is my night<br>But darker is my day yeah<br>I must`ve been blind<br>Out of my mind<br>Not to read the warning signs<br>How goes it?<br>It goes lonely<br>Goes slowly <br><br>So slowly goes the night<br>Ten lonely days, ten lonely nights<br>I watch the moon get flayed anew<br>Until the moom becomes the skinning tool<br>I send the skins of my sins out to cover and comfort you<br>I know of a Heaven<br>And honey I know of a Hell yeah<br>I hang my head<br>In my bed<br>And remember what you said<br>&quot;One evening, I`m leaving&quot;<br>And I laughed and checked her breathing<br>And said darling <br><br>Go slowly through the knight<br>O baby, I feel the heal of time<br>I wake to find you sitting here<br>Cutting tangels out of your hair<br>Singing a song that`s all wrong<br>Hey, but that`s alright, I don`t care<br>O darling forgive me<br>For all the misery yeah<br>I embrace an empty space<br>And your laughing song it fades<br>Where goes it?<br>It goes some place<br>Where it`s lonely <br><br>And black as the night<br>Come back, darling and put things right<br>I hang my head and cry cry cry<br>Darling, all night I try<br>To cease on a reason for this mad mad season<br>The nights, they are so long now<br>I can`t remember it being light<br>Call it sleep, call it death, call it what you like<br>But only sleep, dear<br>Only sleep brings you back to life yeah<br>I hang my head<br>I toss and I sweat<br>I never never can forget<br>How goes it?<br>I`m going, but slowly slowly going<br>And we both know that it`s gonna be alright <br><br>But it ain`t you who has to cry cry cry<br>Ten lonely days, ten lonely nights<br>Since you left my side side side
