When you see me hiding and you know My love's the quiet ghost With no heart for it to host An empty haunted heart for rent Deep in the soul of someone's cemetery Skeletons my friend She could not have saved a broken man So when she goes Let her go, let her go Hiding from the voice of reason has Let me know What I don't know, I don't know Maybe then we can refrain From using the words that make us sleep to numb the pain We could sleep out in the rain With only a blanket for our fortress in the wind I cannot tell you what she stole Maybe my heart, or just a smile, or the secrets to my soul I never learned what lovers say Back in my mind it goes It goes away She could not have saved a broken man So when she goes Let her go, let her go Hiding from the voice of reason has Let me know What I don't know, I don't know Maybe then we can refrain From using the words that make us sleep to numb the pain We could sleep out in the rain With only a blanket for our fortress in the wind She could not have saved a broken man So when she goes Let her go, let her go Maybe then we can refrain From using the words that make us sleep to numb the pain We could sleep out in the rain With only a blanket for our fortress in the wind
