Don't move
Don't do anything
What we've captured got away
Slipped from us
Don't speak
Don't say anything
They've been recording
All we say
For years now

You won't see them right away
But you'll hear them singing
Hold me closely now
But don't, don't say anything
They've come to take me away
And won't leave until I'm gone
I'm gone

Don't feel
Don't love anything
Love attracts all those
Who taint the cherished
Don't try to change anything
Nothing pure can ever stay, oh

You won't see them right away
But you'll hear them singing
Hold me closely now
But don't, don't say anything
They've come to take me away
And won't leave until I'm gone

They'll say "relax, you'll be fine"
(All we love goes away)
Oh, they'll take all you let them find
(All we love goes away)
It was mine
It was mine

You won't see them right away
But you'll hear them singing
Hold me closely
But don't say anything
They've come to take me away
And won't leave until I'm gone, oh
Don't say anything
Don't say anything
They won't leave I'm gone
I'm gone
