"When The Stars Are Gone (Live At The Royal Festival Hall)" lyrics

Marc Almond & Chris Braide Lyrics

"When The Stars Are Gone (Live At The Royal Festival Hall)"

I'm not gonna save you
All I can do is just keep singing
While the ship is sinking and
All around us drowning and burning

The creatures of the Earth are dying
Empty skies, no birds flying
Graves are desecrated
The only sound, my heartbeat dying

When the stars are gone, who will sing our song?
When the stars are gone, who will sing our song?

I'm going colour-blind
With only a void inside
Under the cosmic clouds
Now only pressured shrouds
I see inside your soul
Grey ashes and burned coal

When the stars are gone (dust in apocalypse)
Who will sing our song? (dust in apocalypse)
When the stars are gone (dust in apocalypse)
Who will sing our song? (dust in apocalypse)

As we close our eyes
To bloody finer skies
Will we realize
That all of nature dies?

I walk moon up on high
Dark omen's rub aside
For love their apocalypse that devastates our lives
Under a blood red sky
Under the moon at night
We'll sing of love long lost
We'll sing of winter frost
