And the light we shared has burned on out
A candle, wind, and night
If we have fallen down to earth
Separated by walls of dirt
And too far away to kiss or curse
Chorus:
Can you hear me now?
I've been shouting for an answer
Maybe it's not romance that we have now
But I don't want to fall down
I don't want to fall down in the dark
Without knowing where you are
If I've cheated at this game
And we parted under perverted rain
A handshake, tear, and wave
If we've lived in loving hell
Rather than heaven by ourselves, well
Maybe these are false farewells
Farewells
Chorus:
Can you hear me now?
I've been shouting for an answer
Maybe it's not romance that we have now
But I don't want to fall down
I don't want to fall down in the dark
Without knowing where you are
Can you hear me now?
I've been shouting for an answer
From your lips
Can you feel this final fading kiss?
I don't want to fall down
I don't want to fall down all alone
Into the unknown
I don't want to fall down in the dark
Without knowing where you are
