I lost my baby in the mines of Io
And if you see her, well, tell her I know
That I'll see her someday
Dance with her ghost
Feed a crystal in flurries of snow
[Chorus]
Before [?] died, she took my hand
The mouth of her mind
Kneel where we stand
And then it would die
Back to the floor
Back to the floor
Back to the floor
Then the lights came
Burning my eyes
Well, eyes aren't much useful
Down the darkest of our minds
Well, I'll stay here with you
In these old mines of Io
And haunt the airlock
Searching icy catacombs
[Chorus]
Before [?] died, she took my hand
The mouth of my mind
Knew where we stand
And then it would die
Back to the floor
Back to the floor
Back to the floor
[Outro] [2x]
Waiting for the sun
To come back to me
Waiting for the sun
To come back to me
I can't feel my legs
I can't feel my eyes
But I can feel my heart
Come back to me
