|
Never say goodbye |
|
You're the apple of my eye |
|
The bells I hear them ring |
|
And in the churchyard children sing |
|
For so long |
|
For so long |
|
I've soldiered on |
|
For so long |
|
Another blessed morning comes |
|
Thy will on earth be done |
|
Blundered into the abyss |
|
To seek the wonders of your kiss |
|
I still can taste your lips |
|
My hands upon your hips |
|
For so long |
|
For so long |
|
I've soldiered on |
|
For so long |
|
As the stars they slowly die |
|
Thunder cracks across the sky |
|
These are the words I've longed to say: |
|
Be with me, my love, always |
|
But no our moonlit silhouettes they part and fade |
|
I'm left with a loneliness that has no name |
|
For so long |
|
For so long |
|
I'll soldier on |
|
For so long |
|
Never say goodbye |
|
You're the apple of my eye |
