I know this can't last
Of course, you'll go
Yeah
Naturally we weren't meant to be
We're one act
Always been a fact, I know

So kid
With love a terminal condition
A passing temporal connection
Oh, I would die to know
What you'll do when we're through
When you go!

Will you be content
Wading where clearer shallows pool?
Will you call me friend
If I can swear to be cool? I'll be cool
When you go, when you go, oh lover
(Stay a while)

Now let's talk of why
Hurts less that way
Will I be the shoe that a child outgrew?
Do we break 'cause I wouldn't make you stay?
Okay, with love, a terminal condition
A passing temporal connection
Oh, I would kill to know
How you'll be when you're free
When you go?

Will you dream on us
As you retire to another bed?
Will you find your trust
And will I get to your head, to your head
When you go? Oh lover
(Stay a while)

Oh, when you go, when you go
When you –

You, who live in your private light
You, who make all the loves of my past disappear
Do I wait it out
Put aside my doubt
Like an unread audience
Hoping at a tragedy?
Oh, God, I can't let you go

Will you close your eyes
Never to see this, our fate at heel
If we love this lie
Maybe we can make it real?
Make it real
Here we go, oh, here we go
Here we go, here we go, here we go
Oh, here we go, here we go
Here we go

Life is made of risks
Love... Is the worst of them all
