[Verse 1]
I sit still and the grass grows
Nothing's real
Not impatient, not resigned
Gotta let the slow days ride

[Chorus]
There goes the light
Time slips and spills from day to night
There goes the light
No care, no fire to ignite

[Verse 2]
My love wrote me a sonnet
When we were lovers, told me a secret
All of his drama, I said I'd keep it
Tell him I'm sorry
Tell him I'm sorry

[Chorus]
There goes the light
Time slips and spills from day to night
There goes the light
No care, no fire to ignite
There goes the light (There it goes)
Time slips and spills from day to night (Said I'd keep it)
There goes the light (I'm sorry, tell him I'm sorry)
No care, no fire to ignite
[Outro]
There might be nothin', might be somethin'
Might be havin' one of those days, mmm
Sometimes it's easier to smile and say
Just one of those days
Ah-da-da-da-ah
