No Longer There

And though you'd like to hear a song
 That sings everything's all right
 The temperature is warm
 The fire horses sleep
 So gently comes the night
 Now close your eyes and stare
 The ground they're on is bare
 But once it was as deep
 And wild as giants' dreams
 It's no longer there
 And all of our desires
 Could mirror skies with flames
 And smoke out heaven's halls
 Who was that you called?
 They're no longer there
 Here it goes again
 Here it goes again
 Here it goes again
 What would you leave behind when all your fields are dead
 When your territories are dried out and your cities drowned and swept?
 What would you leave behind when those who bear your name
 Are born in that place that you wrecked?
 What would you leave behind when you're no longer there?
 Would you sail to distant shores
 And hide within the haze?
 Softly close your door
 Pretend the world was saved
 And wait for heaven's call?
 Or would you turn and face the sea
 And calm decide you care?
 There's chance but if you dare
 And swift as honour's steeds
 Before it's no longer there
 Here it goes again
 Here it goes agaaain
 Here it goes aga . ain!
 What would you leave behind when all your fields are dead
 When your territories are dried out and your cities drowned and swept?
 What would you leave behind when those who bear your name
 Are born in that place that you wrecked?
 What would you leave behind when you're no longer there?
 To deny or to despair
 They're really just the same
 And everything between
 It means we have to change
 Cos when a one forgets
 Their world begins to fade
 And all the shapes and shades
 That made their colours see
 Well they suddenly turn grey
 Then they're no longer there
 
 And though you'd like to hear a song
 That sings everything's all right
 The temperature is warm
 The fire horses sleep
 So gently comes the night
 Now close your eyes and stare
 The ground they're on is bare
 But once it was as deep
 And wild as giants' dreams
 It's no longer there
 And all of our desires
 Could mirror skies with flames
 And smoke out heaven's halls
 Who was that you called?
 They're no longer there
 Here it goes again
 Here it goes again
 Here it goes again
 What would you leave behind when all your fields are dead
 When your territories are dried out and your cities drowned and swept?
 What would you leave behind when those who bear your name
 Are born in that place that you wrecked?
 What would you leave behind when you're no longer there?
 Would you sail to distant shores
 And hide within the haze?
 Softly close your door
 Pretend the world was saved
 And wait for heaven's call?
 Or would you turn and face the sea
 And calm decide you care?
