daylight fading

• (bkz: counting crows)
  
  waiting for the moon to come and light me up inside
  and i am waiting for the telephone to tell me i'm alive
  well i heard you let somebody get their fingers into you
  it's getting cold in california
  i guess i'll be leaving soon
  
  daylight fading
  come and waste another year
  all the the anger and the eloquence are bleeding into fear
  moonlight creeping around the corners of our lawn
  when we see the early signs that daylight's fading
  we leave just before it's gone
  
  she said "everybody loves you,"
  she says, "everybody cares"
  but all the things i keep inside myself
  they vanish in the air
  if you tell me that you'll wait for me
  i'll say i won't be here
  i want to say goodbye to you
  goodbye to all my friends
  goodbye to everyone i know
  
  daylight fading
  come and waste another year
  all the the anger and the eloquence are bleeding into fear
  moonlight creeping around the corners of our lawn
  when we see the early signs that daylight's fading
  we leave just before it's gone
