love me tenderly my darling
in this city of light and truth
for this moment forever sing
for my darling that I love you

city of no sun
and no peace in my heart
you left me nothing
you left me broken
once sad, once grieved
you once said you loved me

outside the fields in sunlight
the singing breeze and silence

lover, release me
I can’t move, I can’t breathe
no heart, no peace
no more, nothing
long day, long night
too long, love lies
