Time moves on and on and love, it goes
Now she's gone and all I see is shadows

It's two in the morning
I'm so in the moment
It's two in the morning
I'm so in the moment, oh yeah

Some days I go dark places on my own
Some days I go dark places in my soul

Come and see me
Do you need me?
Hiding deeply
In the feeling
Been so lonely
So unholy
Make me feel free
Come and let me down slow

There's a place in this world
For you and I, you and I, you and I
Hold your head up, golden girl
With you and I, you and I
Until the day we die

On and on, and on, and on, and on
On and on, and on, and on, and on
On and on, and on, and on, and on
It's you and I, and you and I
On and on, and on, and on, and on
On and on, and on, and on, and on
On and on, and on, and on, and on
It's you and I, and you and I
On and on, and on, and on, and on
On and on, and on, and on, and on
