Separations歌词

As the sun shines down on the land

So her heart is crying for love

And there is no one there

No one to hear her voice

And she will sleep alone again tonight
Now the moon is high in the sky

In her room she calls out his name

But he is somewhere else

Somewhere she cannot see

Oh and the night is dark between them now
My god my god why did he go away

Now the sun shines on a new town

With a smile he gets off the train

He lights a cigarette

Leans back to see the sky

Oh and he thinks how much better off he is
Without her hanging round
Let's do it

And the day is passing by him
And he has nowhere to stay

At a lonely bar room table
His mind goes back to yesterday

To the girl who's dead and buried
But her face lives in his eyes
He must forget that face forever

Make the future start tonight

But the meal he eats is dead flesh

There is cancer in his cigarettes
And the drinks won't do a thing for him
But revive some stupid memories
Then a hairstyle that reminds him
Makes him run into the night
Where the moon hangs high above him now
The same moon that she's praying on tonight

But the wind catches her words

And the moon swallows them whole

Now the moon is high in the sky

In her room she calls out his name

The night is cold and dark and she is all alone

The bed is empty now

Her body screams for love

She wants to be with him

Oh but he's so far away

Oh and the night is dark between them now

My god my god why did he go away
