The walls of our home   Are letting in light   But we'll sleep tonight   Oh, we'll sleep tonight      The last of the meal   Is wasting away   They could feed the ghosts   From those dying plates      Evening came in shocks of light   The fireworks burn through our wedding night   Oh, the sky fell faster than the twilight   The twilight      Ooh...      You in your suit   And blazes of red   As they raise the roof   From our honeymoon bed      The flowers arrived   In sickly sweet white   And my father smiled   Oh, my father smiled      Evening came in shocks of light   The fireworks burn through our wedding night   Oh, the sky fell faster than the twilight   The twilight      Evening came in shocks of light   (Gather your kin in the sight of the Lord)   The fireworks burn through our wedding night   (Freedom is coming for you, coming for you)   Oh, the sky fell faster than the twilight   (Dearly departed, we gather no more)   The twilight      Ooh...      Evening came in shocks of light   The fireworks burn through our wedding night   Oh, the the sky fell faster than the twilight   (Gather your kin in the sight of the Lord)   The twilight
