Will you tell me when the lights are fading Cos I can't see, I can't see no more Will you tell me when the song stops playing Cos I can't hear, I can't hear no more She said I don't know what you're living for She said I don't know what you're living for at all He said I don't know what you're living for He said I don't know what you're living for at all But I will run until my feet no longer run no more And I will kiss until my lips no longer feel no more And I will love until my heart it aches And I will love until my heart it breaks And I will love until there's nothing more to live for Will you tell me when the fighting's over Cos I can't take, I can't take no more Will you tell me when the day is done Cos I can't run, I can't run no more She said I don't know what you did it for She said I don't know what you did it for at all He said I don't know what you did it for He said I don't know what you did it for at all But I will run until my feet no longer run no more And I will kiss until my lips no longer feel no more And I will love until my heart it aches And I will love until my heart it breaks And I will love until there's nothing more to live for And I will love until my heart it aches And I will love until my heart it breaks And I will love until there's nothing more to live for
