Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Talking up into the morning
Dreaming of things that we wanted
These days, I cry for flowers crushed in bloom
But I'll believe for you
[Verse 2]
Living through every moment
Letting go all I've been holding onto
Portraits and terrible visions haunt me
When will you decide?
Are you happy with your life? Aye
[Chorus]
Will you sway with me when my voice gives out?
When the harmattan comes 'round?
Will they know us then?
Will we be forgotten?
Never mind, doesn't matter at all
[Bridge]
Blocking it out, it's been enough for me
When it's brighter and it's time to be
I've had it once, but it keeps following
Soften your touch, terminal reveling
I feel lighter with no eyes on me
Fighting it off
With no eyes
Look away now, I can't bear the weight
Look away, look away, look away
Always too late
Ah, ah
[Chorus]
Will you sway with me when my voice gives out?
When the harmattan comes 'round?
Will they know us then?
Will we be forgotten?
Never mind, doesn't matter at all
[Outro]
Now the night has come o'er the mountains
Wait for dawn with me
Laughing till we cry
Bathing in dust and light, I
I don't mind
I don't mind
I don't mind
