Today has been the longest day
And now the night will never end
When it's gone I'll close the door
And only emptiness is left
Today has been the longest day
And now the night will never end
When it's gone I'll close the door
And only emptiness is left
Today has been the longest day
I saw a light so bright and burning with pleasure
It flickers then it stutters then it fades
And heaped in ash my world is smashed to pieces
Who prophesied this?
I don't recognise this
Today has been the longest day
(And now the night will never end)
And now the night will never end
(And now the good times have all gone)
When it's gone I'll close the door
(And only emptiness is left)
And only emptiness is left
Today has been the longest day
I heard a voice that spoke from in the darkness
I thought I heard you call my name
I answered back but I was so uncertain
Asleep or waking?
Was I mistaken?
Today has been the longest day
And now the night will never end
When it's gone I'll close the door
And only emptiness is left
(Today has been the longest day)
Today has been the longest day
(And now the night will never end)
And now the night will never end
(And now the good times have all gone)
When it's gone I'll close the door
(And only emptiness is left)
And only emptiness is left
Hey, hey, hey, hey, yeah
Today has been the longest day
Today has been the longest day
