Waiting for the night to come
Listen for a thrush to sing
And anyone to imitate it
Looking for the star to point
Lighting up a cigarette
And inhale it with surreal air
The moon is high
It's time to go
Evening tide and marigold
Formula to start a quarrel
Trajectories of dragonflies
So tell me where they’ve gone
And what it’s for
And what it’s for
Is there another way to say a long goodbye
A long goodbye?
Is there anyone who give me fire
The wind is strong and cold as ice
I can’t decide or help them out
And I get tongue-tied
I get tongue-tied
So tell me where they’ve gone
And what it’s for
And what it’s for
Is there another way to say a long goodbye
A long goodbye?
With sweetest lies a nighthawk’s
Taking off to reach the star
The story is going to fade into the past
Into the past
