Who will love me when you're gone
The nights are cold, the days are long
The world is broken, the sky is wrong
Who will love me when you're gone
Scattered voices on the highway
Ragged throats raised in song
A constriction in the airway
Who will love me when you're gone
In the time of your arising
In the court beyond the stars
In the throne room of the blind king
Child of Venus, child of Mars
Who will love me when you're gone
The nights are cold, the days are long
The world is broken, the sky is wrong
Who will love me when you're gone
