Lyrics:
[Intro] The days Passing days [Verse 1] I see the steeple And trace to the spire And the sunset Deep in regret Phoenix in final fire [Verse 2] And the time stops Rush hour traffic slows And my heart starts Beating this dark Through old flesh and cold bone [Chorus 1] And I long to be carried on Just once to be lifted strong Out of the loneliness And the emptiness Of the days The days Passing days Days [Verse 3] I remember I had your love once Seized my body whole And in our first dance I thought by chance God had matched my soul But time brought its travelling Its distance and solitude And in that travelling My self damaging I took my love far, far from you [Chorus 2] But don't you Long to be carried on Once more I could lift you strong Out of the loneliness And the emptiness Of the days Passing days Passing days Days [Chorus 3] Tell me Have we gone too far? Or did we get too close? You've no father I've no son But when we come ghost I promise I will meet you I will meet you At the end of the days The days Passing days [Outro] Won't you meet me at the end of the days?
