Gently

No I wouldn't mind going gently into the night

As long as it don't hurt

I won't put up a fight to go beyond the time

When our hands and voice are sold to a world so overgrown

It's moving so fast we should slow down

But as the shadows from the trees

Dance on the window pane, here I lie

Waiting once again, longing for a dream

That may never come, until I'm done

But I wouldn't mind, no I wouldn't mind

I can see it with my own two eyes

That I wouldn't mind

I don't care if I vanish into thin air

As long as there ain't pain

I won't leave you that burden to bear

To live on the other side

So reckless and free to roam

With no fear of the unknown

But I'm moving too fast, I should slow down

But as the shadows from the trees

Dance on the window pane, here I lie

Waiting once again, longing for a dream

That may never come, until I'm done

But I wouldn't mind, no I wouldn't mind

I can see it with my own two eyes

That I wouldn't mind

Time is life's great healer

It's a bandit in disguise

Stealing all your memories

As each year passes by

It's the same old story

Just told on a different day

Another lonesome journey

Down a dark hallway

But I wouldn't mind

No I wouldn't mind

I can see it with my own two eyes

That I wouldn't mind

I wouldn't mind
