The View from the Cheap Seats

Love of mine
Someday, you will die
And I’ll be close behind
i’ll follow you into the dark
no blinding light
no tunnel to gates of white
just our hands clasped so tight
waiting for a hint of a spark
if heaven and hell decide
that they both are satisfied
illuminate the No’s
on their vacancy signs
if there’s no one beside you when
your soul departs
I’ll follow you into the dark
Catholic school as vicious as roman rule
i got my knuckles bruised by a lady in black
and i held my tongue as she told me
son, fear is the heart of love
so i never went back
if heaven and hell decide
that they both are satisfied
illuminate the no’s on their vacancy signs
if there’s no one beside you
when your soul embarks
i’ll follow you into the dark
You and me we’ve seen everything to see
from Bangkok to Calgary
in the soles of our shoes
are all worn down
the time for sleep is now
it’s nothing to cry about
coz we’ll hold each other soon
in the darkest of rooms
if heaven and hell decide
that they both are satisfied
illuminate the No’s
on their vacancy signs
if there’s no one beside you when your soul embarks
i’ll follow you into the dark
i’ll follow you into the dark
