Darling, that morning you chose to go I woke in my boots and clothes You dig in my cards, stole all my cash Even my 500 dollar suit was slashed And I just lay there watching the sun fall down from the sky Not wanting to open the letter But opening it anyway And seeing those two words Lover, lover, goodbye So slowly goes the night Next to me lies your body Playing like a map of some forbidden land And I trace the ghost of your bones with my trembling hand Dark is my night And darker is my day.Yeah I must have been blind, out of my mind I never never saw the warning sign How goes it? It goes lonely It goes slowly So slowly goes the night Ten lonely days ten lonely nights.Come I watch the moon get flayed each night Till the moon becomes the skinning knife The skins of my sins I send to cover and comfort you I know of a heaven But honey, I know of a hell.Yeah I hang my head I toss in my bed I never never forget the words you said One evening "I'm leaving" And I laughed and checked her breathing And said darling "Go slowly through the night" O baby I feel the heal of time And it hurts I wake to find you sitting right there Cutting tangles out of your hair Singing a song that's all wrong Hey, but that's all right, I don't care Darling I'm sorry For all your misery.Yeah I reach out and embrace An empty space A song that slowly slowly fades Where goes it? It goes someplace It goes somewhere where it's lonely And black as the night Come on home lets put things right,put things right I hang my head and cry, cry, cry Darling all night I try To seize on a reason for this mad, mad season The nights they are so long now I can't remember them being light Call it sleep Call it death Call it what you like But only sleep only sleep brings you back to life.Yeah I hang my head I toss and I sweat I never, never, never can forget How goes it? Well I'm going Baby slowly slowly goin' And we both know that its gonna be alright It ain't you that has to cry, cry, cry.Mm Ten lonely days Ten lonely nights O since you left my side, side, side
