Let Me Go - Nouvelle Vague, Silja

Once there was a day

We were together all the way

An endless path unbroken

But now there is a time

A torture less sublime

Our souls are locked and frozen

Let me go

Let me go

I tried but could not bring

The best of everything

Too breathless then to wonder

I died a thousand times

Found guilty of no crime

Now everything is thunder

Daytime, all I want is nighttime

All I want is the nighttime

I don’t need the daytime

Ba-da-da-da, da-da-da-da

Da-ba-da-da, da-da-da-da-da

Da-ba-da-da, da-da-da-da-da

Da-ba-da-da, da-da-da-da-da

Da-ba-da-da, da-da-da-da-da

Da-ba-da-da, da-da-da-da-da

Da-ba-da-da, da-da-da-da-da

Da-ba-da-da, da-da-da-da-da

Once we were years ahead, but now those thoughts are dead

Let me go (Let me go)

All hopeless fantasies are making fools of me

Let me go

I walk alone, and yet I never say goodbye

Let me go (Let me go)

A change of heart, a change of mind, and heaven fell that night

Let me go

The best years of our lives

The hope of it survives

The facts of life unspoken

The only game in town

I’ll turn the last card down

And now the bank is broken
