Take me home
The world is slightly colder now
Both of us are past our better days
Take my hand
And I will give myself to you
Pushing everything out of our way
There’s so much time but not enough for you and me to know
We’ll always find each other in the end
So for tonight, let’s sing about the ones we left behind
And I’ll run with you until we’re dead and gone
Hold me close
The bed is folded gently now
I’m leaving it to time to do the rest
One last word
Before I leave your memories
Don’t be sad 'cause I know I won’t be
There’s so much time but not enough for you and me to know
We’ll always find each other in the end
So for tonight, let’s sing about the ones we left behind
And I’ll run with you until we’re dead and gone
There’s so much time but not enough for you and me to know
We’ll always find each other in the end
So for tonight, let’s sing about the ones we left behind
And I’ll run with you until we’re dead and gone
