Leave without a warning, run afar;
Say now you are not
As I knew you and
drown us at sea;
Let us fade now and never again;
Let me put us to bed, let me
shut all the gates
That bring frames of sorrow
Then maybe tomorrow
In another time, in a far away land
Because
I don't want to live inside
this picture in blue,
I don’t want any shades
To remind me of you;
So let it all blow,
Wither and die
For a new, cleaner space
That’s the end of disgrace
Let it go, let it fade and
It may come back again
In a stainless place,
in a flawless time
That is safe and glad
For the love of you and I.
