Cloaked in black like the stars, so wrapped up in yourself you are
|
The needle taste sweeter by far than the cold light of day
|
And as you become enslaved to the puppy that you grief
|
There is nothing I can do to save you from slipping away
|
And I just wanted, just needed to say
|
I hate to see you wasting away, just wasting away
|
|
So when you just can't take anymore and the nappy comes too full of pain
|
You reach for the comfort of your white stallion again
|
And I just wanted, just needed to say
|
I hate to see you wasting away, just wasting away
|
Just wasting away
|
|
I've seen the fire die away, I've seen the sunset in your eyes
|
I've seen the darkness coming down and I just needed to say good bye
|
|
So you're dancing with the candy man, he's saving the last words for you
|
And as he leads you away by the hand there is nothing I can do
|
There is nothing I can do
|
Goodbye to you, goodbye to you
|
