Never say goodbye You're the apple of my eyes The bells I hear them ring And in the churchyard children sing For so long for so long I've soldiered on for so long
Another blessed morning comes Thy will on earth be done Blundered into the abyss To seek the wonders of your kiss I still can taste your lips My hands upon your hips For so long for so long I've soldiered on for so long
As the stars they slowly die Thunder cracks across the sky These are the words I've longed to say: Be with me, my love, always I`m left with moonlit silhouettes they part and fade I'm left with a loneliness that has no name For so long, for so long I've soldiered on for so long
