Don't take me to the tower

And take my child away

It was I who was

The hourglass

And the sands of time like

Shattering glass went past me

Like a tunnel to the sea



And I who went to sleep as two

Woke up as one now only you remain

You'll close your eyes and travel back

To the time when the light went fading fast

And the words you'll never, never forget, oh no

As you slipped away



Goodbye baby

I hope your heart's not broken

Don't forget me

Yes I was outspoken

You were with me all the time

I'll be with you one day



And I who went to sleep in tears

Woke up in tears, for all of the years

And I who never, never said goodbye

As I slipped away



Goodbye baby

I hope your heart's not broken

Don't forget me

Yes I was outspoken

You were with me all the time

I'll be with you one day



Goodbye baby

I hope your heart's not broken

Don't forget me

Yes I was outspoken

You were with me all the time

I'll be with you one day



Yes, I'll be with you one day
