Losing sight of

Time

It’s a week since I left

It’s no time since I left

I’m losing faith in

Time

We’re both grasping for words

Please, where are your words?

They’re

Gone like all that came before, still

(How! You! Comfort! Me!)

I should’ve seen you more, I know

(How! You! Comfort! Me!)

Gone like all the chances of asking

(How! You! Comfort! Me!)

I’m feeling low

I’m getting want of

(How! You! Comfort! Me!)

Erased!

Erased, but not gone!

I wanna know if we’re all like that

I wanna know if it’s how we’ll die

Thirty years and thirty questions

But now, you can’t reply…

I hate what this has done

You see, this man before

Taught me how to be tender

I’m so glad it’s still a part of you

I shouldn’t ask for more

I shouldn’t chase the past, but

There’s so much I wanna show you, too

(But there’s no chance, now)

Gone like all that came before, still

(How! You! Comfort! Me!)

I should’ve seen you more, I know

(How! You! Comfort! Me!)

Gone like all the chances of asking

(How! You! Comfort! Me!)

I’m feeling low, I’m getting want of

(How! You! Comfort! Me!)

I wanna know if we’re all like that

I wanna know if it’s how we’ll die

Thirty years and thirty questions

But now you can’t reply…

I hate what this has done

If the last thing we said

Could be the last thing we do

I know it comforts me

I hope it comforts you

You’re long gone away

You’ve long lost the truth

If that’s hard for me to say

It must be awful for you

Okay

Maybe I’ve not got it

Maybe you’re lucid, or

Playing jokes in my behalf

You’ve played bad jokes on me before

Maybe I’ve not got it

I’ll feign indifference, or

Hold you tight, just one last time;

I should’ve held you tight before

I wish I’d held you tight before

Oh, when this all falls away

I want to comfort you

I hope it’s the last thing I say

I hope it’s the last thing I do

Oh, one day you’ll forget

That I’ll always love you

It’s still the last thing I’ll say

I know it’s the last thing I do

So stay strong

Stay strong

Yeah, stay strong"
