Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Thunder rolling in to drown November moon in cold black rain
This lightning splits the sky apart, I'm whispering his name
He has to wake up
Love slipping away
Hear the bells beyond the sea, it's almost too late
[Verse 2]
Shadows growing closer now, and there is nowhere left to hide
And I can't break this dreamless sleep however hard I try
I'm down on my knees
And empty inside
Something wicked this way comes from out the cruel and treacherous night
Something wicked this way comes to steal away my brother's life
Something wicked this way comes
I can never say goodbye
[Bridge]
I can never say goodbye
[Verse 3]
Shadows growing closer now, and there is nowhere left to hide
And I can't break this dreamless sleep however hard I try
I'm down on my knees
And empty inside
[Outro]
I can never say goodbye
