Sunlight fading fast, make it last

Like a flame flickers, then it's past

Moonlight fades to dark, carry on

You never know what's real until it's gone.

But love deals the currency of loss

Don't ever forget what it cost.

Hold on to me, carry me through

Our story needs the pain that we outgrew

Yeah, you can't call it love until you've lost

If you love someone this is what it cost

This city cries softly tonight

Like a million teardrops from a thousand eyes

I'm drenched beneath the rainy melbourne skies

Wonder how it is I feel so dry inside.

But love uses the pain to drill the holes

That irrigate our dry and thirsty souls.

Hold on to me, carry me through

Our story needs the pain that we outgrew

Yeah, you can't call it love until you've lost

If you love someone this is what it cost.

Ohhh...

Ohhh...

Ohhh...

Sunlight fading fast, make it last

Sunlight fading fast, make it last.
