I heard you walk
under the black skid of dead (not
sure)
to hurt me, and yes it's sad
has this settled the score
I thought I heard you walk
up the fire-escape last night
and yes, in the deep of the night
I wished you were back
But I did you no wrong
that's not like me, I did you no wrong
so don't put it all on me
and you're not the light of the world
but you shine on me
no, you're not the light of the world
but you shine on me
no, you're not the light of the world now
no, you're not the light of the world now

but you shine on me
no, you're not the light of the world
but you shine on me
no, you're not the light of the world now
no, you're not the light of the world now
no, you're not the light of the world now
no, you're not the light of the world
