I Will Be Gone

I will ask you a last time
Are you ready to leave?
Leave this old world behind
Into this book of mystery?

I saw this blood-red river
I saw the palm of your hand
The bridge of stars where angels fall
I just know this love is real

I waited all too long
I will wait no more
When the light is out
I will be gone

I waited all too long
But I will wait no more
Before you know
I will be gone

You are just my religion
We've gone through heaven and hell
Let's burn the pages of our book
And start all over again

There are promises broken
And there are promises kept
You don't need it where we will go
You don't need anything

I waited all too long
I will wait no more
When the light is out
I will be gone

I waited all too long
But I will wait no more
Before you know
I will be gone

I waited all too long
I will wait no more
When the light is out
I will be gone

I waited all too long
But I will wait no more
Before you know
I will be gone
