[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 blue

 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 bigger 

things at hand

We could a nev

er 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 blue

 shade
            
My tears dry o

        
n their own

[Bridge]

So we are hist

ory

Your shadow co

vers me

The sky above 

ablaze

That only love

rs 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 this blue

 shade
            
My tears dry o

         
n 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 this 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 this 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 this blue

 shade
            
My tears dry o

         
n their own
