(unofficial "english translation") With our lights out This is the way home Breathe and weep. Go on... We come in through Chicago Our dreams and hearts on display Down dirty roads through back streets we cried Our dreams, they were slipping away There is a broken place in me My heart is caving in So we close our eyes Breathing and weeping, we sing "With our lights out This is the way home" Breathe and weep and moan "With our lights out This is the way home" The sheltering sky And my heart is caving in All broke inside It's how this light gets in Breath and weep With our lights out, this is the way Go on With our lights out This is the way home This is the way home
