Like shining oil, this night is dripping down

Stars are slipping down, glistening

And I'm trying not to think what I'm leaving now

No deceiving now, it's time you let me know.

Let me know

[Chorus]

When the lights go out and we open our eyes,

Out there in the silence, I'll be gone, I'll be gone.

Let the sun fade out and another one rise

Climbing through tomorrow, I'll be gone, I'll be gone.

This in between us is getting thinner now

Into winter now, bitter sweet

Across that horizon this sun is setting down

You're forgetting now, its time you let me go, let me go

[Chorus]

When the lights go out and we open our eyes,

Out there in the silence, I'll be gone, I'll be gone.

Let the sun fade out and another one rise

Climbing through tomorrow, I'll be gone, I'll be gone.

[Bridge]

And tell them I couldn't help myself

And tell them I was alone

Oh, tell me I am the only one

And there's nothing left to stop me.

[Chorus]

When the lights go out and we open our eyes,

Out there in the silence, I'll be gone, I'll be gone.

Let the sun fade out and another one rise

Climbing through tomorrow, I'll be gone, I'll be gone.
