MANDOLIN ORANGE
"Until The Last Light Fades"
(Andrew Marlin)

Born to die Born to die darling you'll live
No longer than your years
If heaven and earth are both on the market
Then hell will be nothing to fear

So where oh where have the lights gone lately
As the sun returns for the day
Or has the light found good in these eyes of mine
Please stay until the last light fades

Father oh my father I'll be standing in line
To face what faults are mine
It;'s not these old bones that I'll miss in my dying
It's the girl I'm leaving behind

Love of mine sweet love of mine I'll soon return
To the land to make room for the new
I'll give hell my worst and good to this earth
As for heaven it was found in you
