Close Your Eyes And It All Goes Black Lyrics

Can I take your photograph
I said to you on the bridge
That day when we both stood there

I need some proof
Need a small piece of evidence
A record to show we were here

No don't take my photograph
You said as I took aim
No please don't you take it at all

You're just like a hunter
Shooting the targeted
Hang its skin up on the wall

You held in your fingers
A little white feather
You'd found earlier in the street
In the street in the city
Where the pigeons and people
Cross paths as they walk the concrete

You said you can't make a mark
On the surface of water
The way you can write on the wall

The ripples you leave
Will disappear quickly
Then you let the white feather fall

I said I feel I'm falling
I'll leave just a ripple
I'm frightened to think about it

You said close your eyes
Close your eyes and it all goes black
And for a moment I did

Who will remember us
Who will remember us
When those who remember us go
