I've heard it beforenI'll let you tell it againnJust to hear the sound of your voicenOver this cold, cold wirennSo hold the phonenWhere I wish I could getnHold it right up to your cheeknAnd that's as close as I'll bennSo lie down for the night nAnd wait for morning lightnnWhen all you ever wantnWill find its way to you through the morning fognAnd all I ever was nWill disappear in the fire of the sunnnI've seen it beforenI don't need younI can watch it all unfold if I like nHere in my cold, cold mindnnLike it or notnThe sun still shines at nightnWhen you're closing your eyesnIt's on the other sidennSo trust the setting sunnAnd wait for dawn to comennWhen all you ever wantnWill find its way to you through the morning fognAnd all I ever was nWill disappear in the fire of the sunnnJust like I never wasnJust like I never was permanentnn
