I will never leave you, and you will never know it And i've never known it so plain I will be the one to pretend it was nothing To a blind man each day looks the same (To a blind man each day looks the same) Was it love? was it travel? was it true? was it Tragic? We fucked all but in name And when you say it's over, i will say it's over But a bank account's more than the change (But a bank account's more than the change) My name in salt, your name in marble One trace is gone and one stays I will hold the secret, and you will never see it 'Cause the handsomest flower still fades (The handsomest flower still fades) My name in salt, your name in marble The echo will be the refrain I will never leave you, and you will never know it To a player everything is a game (To a player everything is a game) And as each day goes by we'll have better goodbyes That's the beauty of time and of scale But when i close my eyes, i will still see your light 'Cause a train only follows its rail ('cause a train only follows its rail) We will be the ones to pass on forever Forever will do much to fail I will never leave you and you will never know it To a hammer everything is a nail (To a hammer everything is a nail)
