She  said "You're terrible at stayin',
 Probably better  that you're goin',
 All the love  that you have stolen is a crime"
 But I  don't wanna lean on your piece of glass,  just  to fly.
 She said "You're always  looking inside, why not reaching  outside,
 Put some focus  on a picture perfect wife."
 I said "The earth  is turning 'round, you know,
 The wind  is changing also,
 Don't you think  the same laws might apply to life?"
 But I don't  wanna lean on your wedding bell
 Fare thee well
 I'll  remain your friend till we meet again
 In the twilight
 I said "Everything  is blurry,
 I almost can't  tell you apart from all the other girls
 Except you don't complain."
 She said "Better  fix your vision but I prefer the  precision,
 Of everybody  looking much the same".
 But I  don't wanna lean on your paper back, let's  turn the page.
I  will cheer you on till your game dissolves
 In the twilight.
Ooh,  oh Magdaline,
 I love  you,
 You think  I'm insane,
 Well I'm leaving  on evening's  train
Ah,  hey Madonna,
 do the honors  and pray for  the day.
Is  the sun so selfish, because  it will set now?
Is  the wind a jerk because it change?
 Would you call the  earth an asshole
 For turning  'round 'n' round you know,
 It never  ever stays in just one place.
 Now if  I'm not mistaken, the natural equation  would be,
You  and I as best of friends for life.
Cross  all your lines and numbers,
 And wake  up from the slumber
 Into  a dream of neither day or night.
 Cause I don't  wanna lean on your wedding bell,
 Fare thee well.
I'll  remain your friend till we meet again,
 In the twilight
 In the twilight
