Lyrics

Leaving Tonight

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

There's a path running under the city

Where the stones and the hills divide

There's a path we can walk through the loss and the pity

She's out of the light, she thought it'd be safer

She said: I wanna go home

Eyes turn grey like her face in the paper

She said: I wanna go home

There's a girl sleeping under the river

Where the snow and the rain collide

There's a girl that we watch and we'll soon be with her

She's out of the light, she doesn't remember

She said: I wanna go home

Face turns white like a sky in December

She said: I wanna go home

I wanna go home

There's a black house burning in the moonlight

We're standing at the door and there's no one in sight

This will all be over tonight

There's something in the dark and I wanna go home

There's someone else here, we're not alone

This will all be over tonight

There's a place we can all be together

Where the Moon and the stars reside

There's a place we can go where we'll sleep forever

We're out of the light, we'll never remember

Do you wanna go home?

There's a black house burning in the moonlight

We're standing at the door and there's no one in sight

This will all be over tonight

There's something in the dark and I wanna go home

There's someone else here, we're not alone

This will all be over tonight
