This Too Must Die
I... Worship You
And... I long for you
Together we'll be
For all time
I dream of you
It's ecstasy
But I'm counting down the days
Til you leave
I watch you as you sleep
So peacefully
I lay here in the dark
Of the night
I want what's best for you
Your happiness
So I'm counting down the days
Til you leave
As sure as sun will rise
As sure as the pain subsides
As sure as the fear takes a hold in my heart
In the calm of the night
This too, must die
Always looking for an out
That's me
All those nagging little doubts
That's me
You're too good to last
It's agony
So I'm counting down the days
Til you leave
Another shadow on your face
So visible
And me from day to day
Mercurial
I've been here so many times
It slipped away
So I'm counting down the days
Til you leave
As sure as sun will rise
As sure as the pain subsides
As sure as the fear takes a hold in my heart
In the calm of the night
This too, must die
Now the tears burn my eyes
As I walk out the door
I prepare to take my leave
Like so many times before
It's my fault, the burden is mine
I blame myself, I've been unkind
It's getting harder to breathe
Today is the day that I
As sure as sun will rise
As sure as the pain subsides
As sure as the fear takes a hold in my heart
In the calm of the night
This too, must die
Aaah
As sure as sun will rise
As sure as the pain subsides
As sure as the fear takes a hold in my heart
In the dark of the night
This too, must die
In the dark of the night
At the end of our time
As we leave it behind
So I say goodnight
Close a door on a life
Say a prayer and shine a light
For something precious
Beautiful that's died
This too must die
And... I long for you
Together we'll be
For all time
I dream of you
It's ecstasy
But I'm counting down the days
Til you leave
I watch you as you sleep
So peacefully
I lay here in the dark
Of the night
I want what's best for you
Your happiness
So I'm counting down the days
Til you leave
As sure as sun will rise
As sure as the pain subsides
As sure as the fear takes a hold in my heart
In the calm of the night
This too, must die
Always looking for an out
That's me
All those nagging little doubts
That's me
You're too good to last
It's agony
So I'm counting down the days
Til you leave
Another shadow on your face
So visible
And me from day to day
Mercurial
I've been here so many times
It slipped away
So I'm counting down the days
Til you leave
As sure as sun will rise
As sure as the pain subsides
As sure as the fear takes a hold in my heart
In the calm of the night
This too, must die
Now the tears burn my eyes
As I walk out the door
I prepare to take my leave
Like so many times before
It's my fault, the burden is mine
I blame myself, I've been unkind
It's getting harder to breathe
Today is the day that I
As sure as sun will rise
As sure as the pain subsides
As sure as the fear takes a hold in my heart
In the calm of the night
This too, must die
Aaah
As sure as sun will rise
As sure as the pain subsides
As sure as the fear takes a hold in my heart
In the dark of the night
This too, must die
In the dark of the night
At the end of our time
As we leave it behind
So I say goodnight
Close a door on a life
Say a prayer and shine a light
For something precious
Beautiful that's died
This too must die
