Before You Leave - Thrush Hermit

The light above the street

I can see you perfectly

Who needs the moon above

To see that you don’t need my love?

If you find someone else

Please keep it to yourself

And never let me know

That you ever let me go

There’s fire in the trees

And rain upon the roof

It looks like we won’t freeze

Just close the chimney flue

And do what you gotta do before you leave

The band struck up and played

I know our love might fade

Away and into dust

But if it must, it must

We all die alone

At war or on the phone

Or both at the same time

Sending volleys through the lines
