| [00:12.500] |
It was a long time coming but plain to see |
| [00:19.500] |
When I held his shaking hand, he couldn't look at me |
| [00:26.500] |
He said something about losing, losing the will to go on |
| [00:34.500] |
He looked off into the distance, I knew his mind had gone |
| [00:46.500] |
He lights a candle, it has a soft kind of glow |
| [00:54.500] |
He's scared of the dark but he won't let nobody know |
| [01:01.500] |
Cos when the midnight demons are creeping through the night |
| [01:08.500] |
He knows they'll get to him when he's run out of fight |
| [01:19.500] |
Was it trying to get it right that made it wrong |
| [01:27.500] |
Or was it just a road that went on way too long |
| [01:43.500] |
Too long, too long, too long |
| [01:49.500] |
He searches for words, but the words disappear |
| [01:57.500] |
He talks so quietly, you move closer to hear |
| [02:04.500] |
He's looking for answers but you don't know what to say |
| [02:11.500] |
Just help him through the night into another day |
| [02:41.500] |
He's falling over the edge of the abyss |
| [02:49.500] |
Holding on and reaching out and hoping he won't miss |
| [02:57.500] |
I say "Grab a hold of something, something beautiful and true |
| [03:04.500] |
Someday the world is going to smile for you" |
| [03:16.500] |
Was it trying to get it right that made it wrong |
| [03:23.500] |
Or was it just a road that went on way too long |
| [03:37.500] |
Too long, too long, too long |
