lyrics

If there’s one thing that I know
It’s that the sleep is first to go
Regret’s the blackest coffee you can buy

They say it’s darkest near the dawn
But if you keep your curtains drawn
You’ll never notice when the daylight breaks the sky

And I can finally wash these sheets
And rinse away her stale perfume
But I can finally walk these streets
I can smell the flowers as they bloom

It’s the end of one more day and the coming of the night
She's begun to slip away, retreating like the light
The image of her face once burned in my mind
Is only just a trace, and now it’s fading fast with time

Think I discovered heaven.
In those two or three short seconds
Between when I'd wake and when I'd think of her

If that could be eternity
Then I could finally rest in peace
And stop losing sleep for things that never were

PC/C: ––

They say it marches on; they say it flies
But I know whoever said those things has never said a long goodbye
