It’s taken my whole life
Been waiting my whole life
To feel like this
Said so-long to a friend
So long is too short
I’m convinced
Well, the apple fell from a tree
She placed it on my head
Nocked an arrow to a string
And now I wait for it
I wait for it
Thought I would follow
I wanted to follow
This one all the way
But I was dragged into the light
No longer blind, I’m sad to say
Now everything reminds me of
The shadows and the flames
Dancing on the walls
Where I was chained
I was chained
I’m holding on
And turning away
You’re getting off
But you’re not here to stay
Here to stay
You wrote it all out
You put it all down
On a page
Wrote a little book about yourself
You thought was all about me
Well, I read each word
I read ‘em all again
And I felt the same way
Each time at the end
At the end
Holding on
Then turning away
Yes, you’re getting off
But you’re not here to stay
Here to stay
Oh
You see me standing in the light
But you know
I always love the night
Oh
Yes, I always love the night
Oh
You see me standing in the light
But you know
I always love the night
Oh
Yes, I always love the night
Oh
Yes, I always love the night
