Say farewell and kiss the life goodbye It's ended 'cause no one here can tell They let it pass them by The stolen tears they cry They send it every waking hour That keeps you away in some other place Every weeping flower to touch your face Makes you dream of long forgotten songs From where you belong Night after night when the devil's come closer Shadows appear on the run Well, you hope and you pray You can't wait till it's over Angels of mercy won't come Things don't change but in some other life Well, maybe it wouldn't be so strange To question what feels right There's nothing black or white It's crazy and when the heaven's fall The father and son and the holy ghost They're, they're up against the wall They'll cry the most, you shoot them down And treasure each new day, find no other way Night after night when the devil's come closer Shadows appear on the run Well, you hope and you pray You can't wait till it's over Angels of mercy won't come No desert sun burns brighter No wind could blow as strong No chains will hold you tighter Or carry you along Night after night when the devil's come closer Shadows appear on the run Well, you hope and you pray You can't wait till it's over Angels of mercy won't come
