I hope the night-time is treating you kindly
I hope its darkness is tasting sweet
I hope your arms feel full and contented
And I hope that you're peaceful and you rest in
Your sleep
I hope you feel the love she's missing
And you don't feel like all has been lost
And you forgive her and the lips once they are kissing
And I hope that your craving was worth the cost
Excuse me if I say
I don't want to sound all knowing
Just put those things away
You don't need them anymore
I hope your children will always respect you
And you ignore the anger they feel
They think that you see them so they will always protect you
So send them some new joy so they might heal
Can you hear your friends, they are laughing
I'm sure you sense the guilt that they feel
The good things you planted are finally growing
Now your craving has ended and your life is real
Excuse me if I say
I don't want to sound all knowing
Just put those things away
You don't need them anymore
Put those things away you won't need them where you're going
Excuse me if I say
You don't need them anymore
Now put those things away
You won't need them where you're going
Excuse me if I say you don't need them anymore
Not anymore
Can you feel the love she's missing
Not anymore
I hope your children will always respect you
Not anymore
Not anymore
I hope the darkness is treating you kindly
