I'll say it straight and plain

I know I've made mistakes

I've always been afraid

(I've always been afraid)



A thousand nights or more

I travel east and north

Please answer the door



Can you tell me

You say that love goes anywhere

In your darkest time, it's just enough to know it's there

When you go I'll let you be, but you're killing everything in me



Get down on your knees, whisper what I need

Something pretty (something pretty)

I feel that when I'm old

I'll look at you and know

The world was beautiful



Then you tell me

You say that love goes anywhere

In your darkest time, it's just enough to know it's there

When you go, I'll let you be but you're killing everything in me



I'm done there's nothing left to show

Try but can't let go

Are you happy where you're standing still

Do you really want the sugar pill

I'll wake up tomorow and I'll start

To another, it feels so hard

As a train approaches Gare Du Nord

As I'm sure your kiss remains employed

Am I only dreaming?



You say that love goes anywhere

In your darkest time, it's just enough to know it's there

When you go, I'll let you be

But you're killing everything in me



When you go, I'll let you be

But you're killing everything in me
