[Verse 1]
She wears a halo of ashes
A spectre on the wind
Waits on me so patiently
I no longer can pretend

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Sky lies a thousand miles below
Stars shine and the moon is clear
Nothing and for no one
Won't see me if you're here

[Chorus]
I've been a long, long time away
With one foot in the grave
Glorified in the dying of the sun

[Verse 2]
My angel pulls me closer
As my poison she crawls through
Walks with me so silently
I no longer can refuse

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Tomorrow, a thousand miles behind
Stars shine and the moon below
Wake me where you find me
Pretend you don't know
[Chorus]
I've been a long, long time away
With one foot in the grave
Glorified in the dying of the sun

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
She wears a halo of ashes
A spectre on the wind
Waits on me so patiently
I no longer can pretend

[Pre-Chorus 3]
Tomorrow, a thousand miles behind
Face painted in the moon below
Wake me where you find me
Pretend you don't know

[Chorus]
I've been a long, long time away
With one foot in the grave
Glorified in the dying of the sun
I've been a long, long time away
With one foot in the grave
Glorified in the dying of the sun
