I like to watch things

like to watch things grow

and to take things slow

I like to take them in

with the starlight

and the moon on a cold night

Oh I'd like to see them stay

Like those days

when we must walk this world alone

Last purple sky turns grey

And the world grows cold

I like to watch them

like to watch them go

To where they are gone

I like to take them on

to take them all

And to make them small

Oh I'd like to see them stay

Like those days

when we must walk this world alone

Last purple sky turns grey

And the world grows cold

Like those days

when we must walk this world alone

Last purple sky turns grey

And the world grows cold

And the world grows like those days

when we must walk this world alone

Last purple sky turns grey

And the world grows cold
