Arno Carstens - Switch off the Machine Lyrics

It’s what you do
What I don’t do
Why I love you
What I meant to say
I already miss you

We were the fools
And you were right
But for now just hear me
What I meant to say
I’ve always loved you anyway

These stupid fights
Killed our islands of light
But for the last time
Our souls ignite

My beacon, my silver and gold
I had to lose
This beautiful baggage that I never choose
I'll hang me out
For the whole town to see
What a woman did for me

Switch off the machines
Lie next to me
So I can breathe you
Mainline your smile
Bring forth a kiss
Before I release you

I switched on the lights
I promised that I’d protect you
And now that it’s done
It's time to move on

It’s what you do
What I don’t do
Why I love you
What I meant to say
I already miss you

Switch off the machines
Lie next to me
So I can breathe you
Mainline your smile
Bring forth a kiss
Before I release you

Switch on the lights
I promised that I’d protect you
And now that it’s done
It's time to move on
