oh lord, take me through the night
let me settle down humble and quiet
give a little light to raise me in day, let me run away
and the lovers lie beneath me, the empress at my crown
i'll enter the multitudes but i'll let you down
and that's fine, that's okay, i'm best on my own anyway
when you sleep, i'll be gone
and when you wake, i'll have wings
i fall in love with fickle things
my love i was not made for rings, now i'm out of sight
goodnight, goodnight, goodbye
i beg you embrace dawn and carry on
the days pass with an undying violence
i know that lyric is weak, let me sleep for once
i've been sleepwalking all these months
now i finally feel awake, but i can't bare your heartbreak
when you sleep i'll be gone, when you wake i'll have wings
i fall in love with fickle things
my love i was not made for rings, now i'm out of sight
goodnight, goodnight, goodbye
i beg you embrace dawn and carry on
my love i was not made for rings
for borrows, blues, and other things
goodnight, goodnight, goodbye, carry on
i'm sorry if i was unkind, i'm sorry if i made you cry
oh my god i'm saying goodbye
now i'm out of sight, goodnight, goodnight, goodbye
i pray you embrace dawn
and carry on
