Whenever I run
Whenever I run to you lost one
It's never done
Just hanging on

The past has let me be
Returning as a dream
Shattered as belief

If you have to go don't say goodbye
If you have to go don't you cry
If you have to go I will get by
Someday I'll follow you and see you on the other side

But for the grace of love
I'd will the meaning of
Heaven from above

Your picture out of time
Left aching in my mind
Shadows kept alive

If you have to go don't say goodbye
If you have to go don't you cry
If you have to go I will get by
I will follow you and see you on the other side

But for the grace of love
I'd will the meaning of
Heaven from above

Long horses we are born
Creatures more than torn
Mourning our way home

    This song is probably the BEST song on the album. The piano, mixed with the rocking out in the end, and the lyrics, Billy Corgan put all of that on a platter, ate it, and shat it out, and this glowing masterpiece is what he produced. Billy my boy, you've done it again, what a fucking great song!
