Now as I lay by your side 

would you tell me why everything has to be lies 

leaving everyone wondering when we'll all wind up dead 

to all we are within 

wednesday the third was the night that you rambled 

alone in the fridgid white light like a leopard 

about to dig in to trembling skin 

with wind whipping your shins



Oh 

haven't you heard the news 

nobody came too soon 

surprise our eyes are opening up to you 



Now as I lean to the side 

I can see all the thoughts that you're trying to hide 

I've arranged for a ferry to France

where you should relax, don't worry about the pets

they'll be safe at our address 



Oh 

haven't you heard the news 

nobody came too soon 

surprise our eyes are opening up to you 

nobody came too soon 

surprise our eyes are opening up to you 

you'll always be in our eyes opening up to you 



you've left everyone wondering when we'll all end up dead 

to all we are within 

now as daisies dry off 

and the wind scurries scarlet leaves like they were dust

we can see somewhere off to the east 

a gaggle of geese are singing your goodbye 

hear the sweetest lullaby 

listen up to hear the sky will soon clear 

and you'll be the last one to wish for rain
