it's the end, friend of mine it's the end, friend of mine
time is over where we could simply say I love you now you open the door leave me crying trying to embrace you again trying to face this damn situation man I can't it's the end, friend of mine it's the end, sweet friend of mine
dear friend, I cannot tell the reasons why we started well good time give me some wine when you open the door you seem hurt, don't try to speak a word to me what on earth could really go wrong with you and me? yet its the end, friend of mine it's the end, sweet friend of mine
time seems to be over where we could simply say I love you now you opened the door I feel cold why can't I hold you in my arms told you that life is short but love is old it's the end, friend of mine
Outside the rain begins And it may never end So cry no more, on the shore a dream Will take us out to sea Forevermore, forevermore
Close your eyes ami And you can be with me 'Neath the waves, through the caves of hours Long forgotten now We're all alone, we're all alone
Close the window, calm the light And it will be all right No need to bother now Let it out, let it all begin Throw it to the wind, my love, Hold me dear. Throw it to the wind, We're all alone.
Where the river runs to black I take the schoolbooks from your pack Plastics, wire and your kiss The breath of eternity on your lips
In the crowded marketplace I drift from face to face I hold my breath and close my eyes I hold my breath and close my eyes And I wait for paradise And I wait for paradise
The Virginia hills have gone to brown Another day, another sun goin' down I visit you in another dream I visit you in another dream
I reach and feel your hair Your smell lingers in the air I brush your cheek with my fingertips I taste the void upon your lips And I wait for paradise And I wait for paradise
I search for you on the other side Where the river runs clean and wide Up to my heart the waters rise Up to my heart the waters rise
I sink 'neath the river cool and clear Drifting down I disappear I see you on the other side I search for the peace in your eyes But they're as empty as paradise They're as empty as paradise
I break above the waves I feel the sun upon my face
