The light is dimmed and so is your lookYou can’t ignore what’s coming in your arms Everything is broken in this old room
We must erase the evidence of this crimeA velvet ribbon
The sulfurous bond of our love
A velvet ribbon
Crossing hearts through the color of your skin A velvet ribbon
To tie your love to mine and
A velvet ribbon
Keep a memory through timeBodies exhausted
Sweat on your skin
I can see the shivers beading like waves on her I think we found our common ground
We can’t ignore that love is in our armsA velvet ribbon
The sulfurous bond of our love
A velvet ribbon
Crossing hearts through the color of your skinA velvet ribbon
The sulfurous bond of our love
A velvet ribbon
Crossing hearts through the color of your skin A velvet ribbon
To tie your love to mine and
A velvet ribbon
Keep a memory through time

What would you do differently
If only you could start things over?
Where would you go if you knew
They’d be there waiting for you?

I would go back home.
I would go back home.
Back where I belong Home forever long.

Where would you live once you’re done with
All those things you’ve ever dreamed of?
Would you head back in a heartbeat If you fell in love?

I would go back home… …Back where I am strong Back where I belong.

Would you still love me like you used to?
Would you still hold me as you used to do?
When I come home…

I would go back home…

Oh you might want to tell me if I’m wrong
You may wish to say before too long.
Save it till I’m done, cos’ you’re not the only one.
Oh everyone can tell me when I’m gone.

Oh you might hear of things you don’t agree
And you’ll form your own opinions about me.
Please save it till I’m done,
I can’t be the one they want.
Oh everyone can tell me when I’m gone.

Oh oh…

I took some time to wonder about life
I’d been hoping this year would turn out right.
You know there’s something more, yet you’ve seen this all before.
Maybe everyone will see this when I’m gone.

Oh oh…

It’s been a while since I last prayed to GodA departure from grace, I’d fallen hard.
With everything aside I really messed it up this time.
I hope everyone will save it till I’m done.

Oh oh…

I hope someday you’ll see I’m not who I used to be,
Then everyone can tell me when I’m gone

Looks like the rain has come back againLooks like that grey sky has settled inFeels like the winds turned against my sailLooks like the rain comes cos’ you’re not here.
Oh sweet beloved, where have you gone?I wish I knew where I’d gone wrong.
I would be there in the blink of an eyeWith you somewhere other thanThis dark grey sky.
Looks like the rain has rolled in once moreSeems I’m alone standing on an empty floorSeems like the world’s gone monochromeLooks like the rain comes when I’m alone.
Oh sweet beloved.
