Lyrics The Alan Parsons Project – Requiem

Well, I thought that one day
You and me would run away
Did I make a mistake
Of saving my someday

I speak the eulogy
To everyone I see
It doesn’t comfort me
The requiem I wrote
For love will not grow old
And we will never know
We’ll never know
Never know

But I thought that one day
You and me would run away
Did I make a mistake
Of saving my someday
So write on the headstone
Here lies the unknown
The wand breaks and love cries
The day that the magic dies

Put on the clothes of black
She’s never coming back
The family’s so sad
I’m damned to being saved
I rise above the grave
A new way everyday

But I thought that one day
You and me would run away
Did I make a mistake
Of saving my someday
So write on the headstone
Here lies the dead and gone
The wand broke and the love cried
The day that the magic dies

Goodbye
Goodbye…
