[Verse 1]

The unknown distance to the great beyond

Stares back at my grieving frame

To cast my shadow by the holy sun

My spirit moans with a sacred pain

And it's quiet now

The universe is standing still


[Chorus]

And there's nothing I can say

There's nothing we can do now

And there's nothing I can say

And there's nothing we can do now


[Interlude]

Ooh, ooh


[Verse 2]

And all that stands between the souls release

This temporary flesh and bone

We know that it's over now

I feel my faded mind begin to roam

Every time you fall and every time you try

Every foolish dream and every compromise

Every word you spoke and everything you said

Everything you left me, rambles in my head


[Chorus]

And there's nothing I can say (Nothing I can say)

There's nothing I can do now

There's nothing I can say (Nothing I can say)

There's nothing I can do now


[Post-Chorus]

Up above the world so high


[Verse 3]

And everything you loved and every time you try

Everybody's watching everybody cry

Stay, don't leave me, the stars can wait for your sign

Don't signal now


[Chorus]

And there's nothing I can say

There's nothing I can do now

There's nothing I can say

There's nothing we can do now


[Outro]

Goodnight

Travel well

Goodnight

Travel well

And there's nothing I can say, nothing I can do

Now

Good, travel well

Travel well

(Travel well)
