Something had to give, we'd bled each other dry
That's no way to live, that's no way to die
But killing any chance of one last gasp reprieve
Only made it hard, so damn hard to leave
This sorrow will retreat
And sweetness will prevail, 'cause we're perfectly complete
Delight in reminders of finer times
When the nights were nights we built from days of wine
I was just a child, a canvas blank with youth
Craving love so wild, finding it in you
For the passing years, for my younger face
For our fall from grace, take my shameless tears
This sorrow will retreat
And sweetness will prevail, 'cause we're perfectly complete
Delight in reminders of finer times
When the nights were nights we built from days of wine
In praise of chaos, in praise of love lost
To salvage order, to break the deadlock
In praise of conflict and all we forfeit
Rekindle laughter till we've restored it
Rekindle laughter till we've restored it
Delight in reminders of finer times
When the nights were nights we built from days of wine
Delight in reminders of finer times
When the nights were nights we built from days of wine
Days of wine, days of wine
