I've been holding this torch for so long
And I just can't let you stay
On that side of this golden wall
And we go out every night
But we're walking out two separate lives
And I just can't let you be
So won't you hold on, my deario
The years turn quickly, the nights burn slow
Ah but trust me, they'll get you home
And I know that you're right
To be gripping those heart strings so tightly
They're glistening slightly from all of that sweat in your palms
And we go out every night
But we're falling to pieces inside
And I just can't let this be
So won't you hold on, my deario
The years turn quickly, the nights burn slow
Ah but trust me, they'll get you home
I'll call you when we get home
I'm gonna run away with you
Sit somewhere with a different view
Your shadow in the grass makes two
Are we gonna, yeah, are we gonna"¦?
The years turn quickly, the nights burn slow
Ah but trust me, they'll get you home
I've been holding this torch for so long
And I just can't let you stay
On that side of this golden wall
And we go out every night
But we're walking out two separate lives
And I just can't let you be
