You can't find a reason
Why the world keeps passing by
Occupy these changing seasons
With the flooded streets of night

Cause this useful advantage
Fades while the sand is
Dripping from the hour glass
Want a taste of the fast life
But nobody sleeps tight
When the after hours pass

Don't hang your head so low
There's no turning back, no turning back
You put on quite a show
There's no turning back, lady in black

Hit the scene, something's missing
Where's the sparkle in your eye
You're up so high, everybody's listening
To the static of the night

Cause this useful advantage
Fades while the sand is
Dripping from the hour glass
Now they're dimming the house lights
You know it don't feel right
Wishing that this moment would last

Don't hang your head so low
There's no turning back, no turning back
You put on quite a show
There's no turning back, lady in black

I came to let you know
I came to let you know
There's no turning back

Baby don't get lost in the great chain smoke
With the petty hearts and the last to go
In the same free voice she goes back and forth
Hoping to find love

Don't hang your head so low
There's no turning back, no turning back
You put on quite a show
There's no turning back, lady in black

Don't hang your head so low
When there's no turning back, yeah
You put on quite a show
There's no turning back, lady in black

I came to let you know
I came to let you know
There's no turning back
