Round about midnight there was a...
Knocking at the door, it came and it went
You walked into the room and it's torn me since
But I can't survive on the fractions of a life
So please tell me when you're gone
So I know when I don't have to hide
Maybe there's a place we can share
Stand down with your hands and charms in the air
I know what you want but this can't be defied
You can't walk away and expect me to die
Stop baby, don't you move
Don't you worry bout where I'm going to
But we can carry on
You can stir the potion and mix the dust
But you can't conjure something now I can trust
Could there still be hope as the season dies
Would you be a saint if I believe the lies
Maybe there's a place in between
And I see what you are and what you want me to be
I know what you thought but this can't be denied
You can't hold the wheel and expect me to drive
I was building you a house
Somewhere in the clouds
Pushing through the crowd
Looking to be found
Seeing what they mean
Every thought's a dream
Waiting to arise
Dead until it dies
Maybe we're too old
Maybe we should hold
Baby I don't know
Steady as we go
Today could be the day
It never hurts to pray
And when you hear me say I'm leaving
Maybe there's a place we can share
Stand down with your hands and charms in the air
I know what you want but this must be goodbye
So take care with your love
And leave me to take care of mine
