David Sylvian - Brightness Falls lyrics

Baby, baby

I hate to go

Don't leave me alone with this sorrow

The body's heavy

The getting's slow

Lost in moments

Caught in moments

The night is starless

And stands below

And I need you by my side

Baby, baby

I love you so

Don't leave me alone in this hollow

When brightness falls

Who'll come running?

When brightness falls

Who'll come running in?

Saved by silence

Save by noise

Save by lightning

Saved by joy

Building on emptiness

And all you broken hearted people

Baby, Baby

The hurt heals slow

And who can believe in tomorrow?

When brightness falls

Who'll come running?

When brightness falls

Who'll come running in?

The ticket's exploded

Only one way out

Live in lightness

Lost in lightness

There's nothing left to write about

And time's no longer

The greatest injustice of all

On this new day.
