lyrics

I turned the lights out for the last time
I saw the lights go out in your eyes
Tore the pictures off the wall
Closed the windows locked the door
Threw the keys into the sea
Lit a match upon the deeds

Your eyes

Like a letter from a lover who left too soon
There's an ache in the echo of these empty rooms
And the dust in the air and the footsteps on the stair
They're all gone
We were winning the war but we lost the fight
I heard shots ringing out in the dead of night
And the games that we played and the promises that we made
They're all gone

I heard the attic timbers splinter
I felt the icy chill of winter
But I still tightrope on the wall
I hold my breath in case I fall
Remember bonfires on the lawn
Before the flood before the storm

Your eyes

Like a letter from a lover who left too soon
There's an ache in the echo of these empty rooms
And the dust in the air and the footsteps on the stair
They're all gone
We were winning the war but we lost the fight
I heard shots ringing out in the dead of night
And the games that we played and the promises that we made
They're all gone
