Song Lyrics

No I wouldn't mind going gently into the night
As long as it don't hurt
I won't put up a fight
To go beyond the time
When our hands and voice are sold to a world overgrown
It's moving so fast we should slow down

But as the shadows from the trees
Dance on the window pane
Here I lie waiting once again,
Longing for a dream
That may never come
Until I'm done

But I wouldn't mind
No I wouldn't mind
I can see it with my own two eyes
That I wouldn't mind

I don't care
If I vanish into thin air
As long as there ain't pain
I will leave you that burning pain
To live on the other side
So reckless and free on your own
With no fear of the unknown
But I'm moving too fast I should slow down

But as the shadow from the trees
Dance on the window pane
Here I lie waiting once again,
Longing for a dream
That may never come
Until I'm done

But I wouldn't mind
No I wouldn't mind
I can see it with my own two eyes
That I wouldn't mind

Time is life's great healer
It's a bandit in disguise
Stealing all your memories
As each year passes by
It's the same old story
Just told on a different day
Another lonesome journey
Down a darker away

But I wouldn't mind
No I wouldn't mind
I can see it with my own two eyes
That I wouldn't mind
I wouldn't mind
