Generate meaning
1
Lover, lover, goodbye
2
So slowly goes the night
3
I trace the print of your body with my hand
4
Like the map of some forbidden land
5
I trace the ghosts of your bones
6
With my trembling hand
7
Dark is my night
8
But darker is my day yeah
9
I must've been blind
10
Out of my mind
11
Not to read the warning signs
12
How goes it?
13
It goes lonely
14
Goes slowly
15
So slowly goes the night
16
Ten lonely days, ten lonely nights
17
I watch the moon get flayed anew
18
Until the moom becomes the skinning tool
19
I send the skins of my sins out to cover and comfort you
20
I know of a Heaven
21
And honey I know of a Hell yeah
22
I hang my head
23
In my bed
24
And remember what you said
25
"One evening, I'm leaving"
26
And I laughed and checked her breathing
27
And said darling
28
Go slowly through the knight
29
O baby, I feel the heal of time
30
I wake to find you sitting here
31
Cutting tangels out of your hair
32
Singing a song that's all wrong
33
Hey, but that's alright, I don't care
34
O darling forgive me
35
For all the misery yeah
36
I embrace an empty space
37
And your laughing song it fades
38
Where goes it?
39
It goes some place
40
Where it's lonely
41
And black as the night
42
Come back, darling and put things right
43
I hang my head and cry cry cry
44
Darling, all night I try
45
To cease on a reason for this mad mad season
46
The nights, they are so long now
47
I can't remember it being light
48
Call it sleep, call it death, call it what you like
49
But only sleep, dear
50
Only sleep brings you back to life yeah
51
I hang my head
52
I toss and I sweat
53
I never never can forget
54
How goes it?
55
I'm going, but slowly slowly going
56
And we both know that it's gonna be alright
57
But it ain't you who has to cry cry cry
58
Ten lonely days, ten lonely nights
59
Since you left my side side side
