Only the night will know, shots
went off, they lie there in cold
blood, finally alone

Only the night will know, where
they go, lying still in the snow, with
the deathly cold gun they both hold

On the night will know, where
they went together, only one solution
the only way they knew, to stick it
out, make it through

Only the night will know, why
they lie there together alone, hand
in hand, hearts embraced, with
death in their body, death in their face

Only the night will know, why
they had to go, why they lie there
alone; now there is no way
on earth they will let each other go.
