Don't take me to the tower And take my child away It was I who was the hourglass And the sands of time like shattering glass went past me Like a tunnel to the sea And I who went to sleep as two Woke up as one now only you remain You'll close your eyes and travel back To the time when the light went fading fast And the words you'll never, never forget, oh no As you slipped away Goodbye baby I hope your heart's not broken Don't forget me Yes I was outspoken You were with me all the time I'll be with you one day And I who went to sleep in tears Woke up in tears For all of the years And I who never, never said goodbye As I slipped away Goodbye baby
