What if I just go flying away?
Will you lay me down on a bed of stone?
When the moon turns red and the sun burns black
When the reaper's whip across my back
Or would you take my hand?
And when we reach the end, when we face eternity
What would you say?
When I close my eyes and the dreams won't come
When the reaper's whip, falls across my back
When I fear the touch of the highway's call
And the final word is spoken
Would you wait a million years?
What if I just go flying away?
In that long and silent sleep
When the hour glass is broken
In that long and silent sleep, will you be with me?
Or would you be with me, loverman?
Would you be with me, my loverman?
When I close my eyes and the dreams won't come
And the world has set me free, yeah
What would you say?
This word will still be ours
Would you steal me from the cold?
Would you fly away with me?
When the moon turns red and the sun burns black
Loverman, loverman, oh, loverman
When the world has set me free, will you still be with me, my loverman?
Oh, loverman, yeah
Would you cry a million tears for me?
Will you lay me down? Will you lay me down on a bed of stone?
When the river don't run and the night won't fall
When fate has lost its power
Would you lead me to my soul again?
Loverman, yeah
Loverman, oh, my loverman, yeah
