The sun is like a mistake on your pale grey skin It's staining your colour so fragile in the wind The cranes rise high in to the sky heading south My heart goes with them and leaves me so cold Their parting song still echoes in my ears Leave it all behind, leave it all behind tonight with me I'm never asleep and never quite awake I've been dreaming of waking up from these dreams Silence made by machines that never sleep Leave it all behind, leave it all behind tonight with me With our arms open wide, just before the tide rushes over us
