We're a Long Time Gone

There it goes again
Crawling up my bed post every night
There it goes again
Showing me as face so full of eyes

Say you will be mine
Sing to me your greatest lullaby
To be nullified
Slide away i'm speechless every time

Say you will protect me
Say you will protect me

A nervous reaction won't be wrong
Cos we're a long time gone

A nervous reaction won't be wrong

There it goes again
Stringing out its bed for me to lie
Say a long goodbye
Drift away on patience to define

Say you will be mine
Sing to me your greatest lullaby
To be nullified
Slide away i'm speechless every time

Say you will protect me
Say you will protect me

A nervous reaction won't be wrong
Cos we're a long time gone
