Brightness Falls Songtext

von David Sylvian

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
Brightness falls, who'll come running?
But 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
Who can believe in tomorrow?
Brightness falls, who'll come running?
But 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, yeah
On this new day

On this new day
