And why can't you wait a little longer / You don't want to leave this soon / There's one thing I want you to know / Give me some time before you go / My ears cannot stand this silence / Please say my name one more time / My eyes cannot stand the light / So fragile how can you cry / How can you see / My ears cannot stand this silence now / Say my name one more time / My eyes cannot stand the light / So fragile how can you cry with a smile / Can't you wait a little longer / You don't want to leave this soon / There's one thing I want you to know / Give me some time to explain / Listen to me before you go / Take me along / as you sit here all alone / Getting to know myself / I do not care about the birds / Nor about the sun / I know it is not your choice / I know it's not your fault / That you'll be gone / So take me along now / Together we cry / As we see the end coming near / Your tired eyes feel my fear / Feel my fear again
