A lovely song, but quite morbid if you listen to the words.
~~~~~~~~~~~
I could wait here all night for you
Though it's getting mighty cold outside
When all I can think is "Are you with that other one?"
Two years have gone by
gone by myself
All my wasted time all my rehearsed lines
This can't go on forever
Silly one, can't outrun your shadow
Even in the darkest of nights
When your shades are all drawn
that's when I know you're home
and I like to watch you sleep
But outside I won't be for long
- - - -
Today is my birthday
The greatest day that you never knew about
I blow out my candles one by one, oh how can you be so fucking dumb?
This gonna hurt you just like it hurts me
Because I'm losing my patience
And believe me you wouldn't like me mad
If I don't get what I want right here, you won't be breathing next year
If I can't have you nobody gets to
(Same chords as first chorus)
Sorry boy, can't outrun your shadow
Even in the darkest of nights
When your shades are all drawn
that's when I know you're home
and I love to watch you sleep
But outside I've been here too long
Outside I've been here too long
(Time signature change - from swinging 4/4 to straight 6/8)
It's time to die now, go to sleep, don't be scared, here I come love
It's time to die now
I'm right behind you (x3)
So nice to meet you
To finally meet you
