Dark and unforgiving In the cold and the rain Their cries never heard They’re falling slowly In quiet desperation (they reach out) Hand in hand Like leaves in a breeze They are picked up and taken away And then they slip away No time for goodbyes They slip away No time for goodbyes Orange corks bobbing on the restless sea A slow ballet turning And my heart is yearning And then they slip away No time for goodbyes They slip away No time for goodbyes Orange corks bobbing on the restless sea They are you and they are me
