lyrics

(Verse 1)
Darkness please don’t let this night end,
I’d drown the sun had I a way,
Maybe we could just pretend,
That all’s a dream save for today

You took my arm out in the cold,
The world melted and I lost my breath,
To stay out is what I’ve always been told,
But what’s sin next to this living death?

(Chorus 1)
Well I don’t wanna live, I don’t wanna live, I can’t live with myself
But I don’t wanna die, I don’t wanna die, die alone
And I don’t wanna think, I don’t wanna think, I don’t wanna think about your stupid boyfriend
And I don’t wanna go, I don’t wanna go, Oana, go home!

(Post-Chorus)
It wasn’t right, but I turned off the light, and I shut the door,
We were both tucked in, and I’d never been, been tucked in before
I swear I heard her ask for more

(Verse 2)
If only I’d a reason to hate him,
My reservations would disappear,
It’s wrong for me to make you feel murky,
It’s wrong for me to feel so clear,

But you’re as strong as the Carpathians,
And you’re as deep as the Black Sea,
And your smiles as wide as the skies over the St. Croix at night,
I wanna see it again, Oh Oana, let me be

(Chorus 2)
Wouldn’t it be nice if when we die we go to a garden?
And wouldn’t it be sweet if everyone we ever meet were there?
And wouldn’t it be great, we could look down on future generations?
And wouldn't it be swell if you were there as well, we could hold hands.

(Post-Chorus)

(Outro)
~Owwoo
And now I'll never see you again
~Owwoo
Now I know I'm gonna descend
~Owwoo
Right into hell and out of time
~Owwoo
To Washington and Ramsey we'll go
~Owwoo
And soon enough be distanced by snow
~Owwoo
I guess I'll see you...
Past the Ol' County Line
Oh No
