Lyrics This Mortal Coil - Fond Affections

Fond affections
are never said.
They're only sung in songs.
I never was
naive enough
to know when I was wrong.
There's no light
at the end of it all.
Let's all sit down and cry.
There's no light
at the beginning.
Let's all sit down and cry.
Now it's time
to say goodbye.
Now it's being
forced upon you.
It's just the person
by your side
remaining distant.
Now the winter's
growing close.
The days are getting older.
I can tell
by your face
that your heart is getting colder.
There's no light
at the end of it all.
Let's all sit down and cry.
There's no light
at the beginning.
Let's all sit down and cry
