[Verse 1]


All I can ever

 be to you
     
Is a darkness 

that we knew
        
And this regre

           
t I've got acc

    
ustomed to

Once it was so

 right
     
When we were a

t our height
        
Waiting for yo

           
u in the hotel

    
 at night

I knew I hadn'

t met my match
        
But every mome

nt we could sn

atch
        
I don't know w

           
hy I got so at

 
tached

It's my respon

sibility
          
And you don't 


owe nothing to

 me
        
But to walk aw

           
ay I have no c

 
apacity


[Chorus]

        
He walks away
           
The sun goes d


own
          
He takes the d

           
ay but I'm gro


wn
          
And in your wa

            
y, in this blu

    
e shade
            
My tears dry o

       
n their own


[Verse 2]


I don't unders

tand
     
Why do I stres

s the man
        
When there's s

           
o many better 

    
things at hand
       
We coulda neve

r had it all
      
We had to hit 

a wall
        
So this is ine

        
vitable withdr


awal

Even if I stop

 wanting you
     
A perspective 

pushes through
        
I'll be some n

           
ext man's othe

   
r woman soon
   
I can not play

 myself again
   
I should just 

be my own best

 friend
        
Not fuck mysel

           
f in the head 

        
with stupid me

   
n


[Chorus]

        
He walks away
           
The sun goes d


own
          
He takes the d

           
ay but I'm gro


wn
          
And in your wa

            
y, in this blu

    
e shade
            
My tears dry o

       
n their own


[Bridge]


So we are hist

ory
Your shadow covers me
The sky above ablaze


[Chorus]

      
He walks away

The sun goes d

own

He takes the d

ay but I'm gro

wn

And in your wa

y, in this blu

e shade
My tears dry on their own


[Verse 3]

 
I wish I could

 say no regret

s
       
And no emotion

al debts
        
Cause as we ki

           
ss goodbye the

   
 sun sets

So we are hist

ory
   
The shadow cov

ers me
        
The sky above 

           
ablaze that on

   
ly lovers see


[Chorus]

        
He walks away
           
The sun goes d


own
          
He takes the d

           
ay but I'm gro


wn
          
And in your wa

            
y, in my blue 

    
shade
            
My tears dry o

       
n their own
        
He walks away
           
The sun goes d


own
          
He takes the d

           
ay but I'm gro


wn
          
And in your wa

            
y, in my deep 

    
shade
            
My tears dry o

       
n their own
        
He walks away
           
The sun goes d


own
          
He takes the d

           
ay but I'm gro


wn
          
And in your wa

            
y, in my blue 

    
shade
            
My tears dry o

       
n their own
