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
