Farewell

The clock, it's turning

The well has run dry

This wheel is burning a hole in the sky

The world outside rages and calls like a drug

Gotta go out to find it -

Away, my love

There's so many thoughts, child that I left unsaid

Now they weigh down my heart till it feels like it's lead

The night is on fire so I gotta go

But where it will lead me I just don't know

Lover, listen, you gotta believe me

I'm telling you God's honest truth

Try to cry to me

Please believe me

I wouldn't just walk out on you

But farewell, my love, I remember you well

Like no words can say

Like no tongue can tell

Farewell, dear lover, I remember you, yes

I promise you this -

I'll never forget

This day it's been coming for a long while now

See, I wanted to tell you but I didn't know how

No words could say what I felt in my bones

Gotta go out to wander 'cause this ain't my home

You're beautiful, love - and I'll take that with me

To lives I'll touch on and worlds I'll see

The sky, it is shattered, what's going is gone

And all there is left is to keep pushing on

Every night it's coming to me

Oh, stronger and bolder it cries

No use putting your lights out, baby

And no use in asking me why

Farewell, my love, I remember you well

Like no words can say

Like no tongue can tell

Farewell, dear lover, I remember you, yes

I promise you this -

I'll never forget
