At the close of every day
There抯 a woman passing
Lover did you hear her say
Her one last word
We抮e all doing time
Something抯 closing
Haven抰 you heard?

The woman that we抳e tried to stop
Now sits alone just waiting 'til forever
Forever makes me cry
And I don抰 know why all you people
Put that into my head
I can抰 see why this conversation
Is looking kind of dead

At the close of every day
There抯 a woman passing
Lover did you hear her say
Her one last word
I抦 often doing time
And I don抰 know just why you reckon
It would be this day and

Don抰 you see that my heart抯 on fire
Your wicked wings that you spread 抮ound me sometimes
All I know is that we抳e got to aim higher
Babe I wish that we抎 go for the great escape

So you do praise a different light
And I am blinded by it
So sorry that I made you cry
Your faith in me it had to die
I guess that
That it抯 too late
The lights are out
The party抯 over baby
And now
I wish I抎 told you

Don抰 you see that my heart抯 on fire
Your wicked wings that you spread 抮ound me sometimes
All I know is that we抳e got to aim higher
Babe I wish that we抎 go for the great escape

Don抰 you see that my heart抯 on fire
Your wicked wings that you spread 抮ound me sometimes
All I know is that we抳e got to aim higher
Babe I wish that we抎 go for the great escape
