That's how you view yourself

Now that you're twentytwo

Twentytwo

If I could do it

I would stay young for you

We could live inside a place

Where we'd never have to face

All the people who disgrace us

And make us hide our face

Busted and used

That's how you view your girl

Now that she's twentytwo

Twentytwo

If I could do it

I would stay young for you

We could live inside a place

Where we'd never have to face

All the people who disgrace us

And make us hide our face

If I could do it

I would fly into the sun

I would become warm

And I meant it when I said you're my favourite son

With your finger that is reaching

For the trigger of the gun

And you know you've got to prove it

To yourself and everyone

I do not go quietly

Into the night that calls me

Even when I'm alone

I do not go quietly

Into the night that calls me

Even when I'm alone

If I could do it

I would take her in my arms

I would unwrong all his wrongs

I could stay here and write a thousand songs

Just to show her that the stars

Still come out behind the fog

There's a light on in the lighthouse

You can see it in the dark

I do not go quietly

Into the night that calls me

Even when I'm alone

I do not go quietly

Into the night that calls me

Even when I'm alone

I do not go quietly

Into the night that calls me

Even when I'm alone

I do not go quietly

Into the night that calls me

Even when I'm alone
