Ballad Of The Golden Hour

(album: Almanac - 2013)

There's a cold flight as he walks in light
He tells the time trailing from our eyes
And if we live until we're long in the teeth
Think of me, how I used to be
We can never stay forever
'Cause you know we're destined to go home
It isn't over till it's over
The night's claim is good as gold

As the times stretch, as our bodies go
When we feel strange from the moment we're alone
And if we live until we're long in the teeth

Love between, how it used to be
We can never stay forever
We were destined to grow cold
Hey, you coming over? It isn't over
The night's claim is good as gold

I would like you to love me like [?] I'm young
I'm slowing down, I'll slow it down
The nights are slowing down
I'm slowing down
And I'm slowing down
And I'm slowing down
