Grief is a freight train 
No, what's a little pain 
When you have so much to love? 
Grief is a freight train 
No, what's a little pain 
When you have so much to love? 

Forever is a slow dream 
Oh, what a vivid thing 
When you've got so much to lose 
Hope is a fast car 
Only takes you so far away 
Where you've got a lot to learn 

Close your eyes 
Take to the sky like a big blue kite 
Leave your woes behind 
Close my eyes 
Try to remember what you said to me 
Before you said goodbye 

Love is a slow song 
Playing on the radio 
I know every word by heart 
Happiness is a soft light 
That way we see our life by 
Only fading to the dark 

Close your eyes 
Take to the sky like a big blue kite 
Leave your woes behind 
Close my eyes 
Try to remember what you said to me 
Before you said goodbye
