Tell me again how much you love me
And how you'll always be there
Tell me again you want to hold me
And ease all my pain and cares
It never lasts
It's all in the past
And I won't see you anymore
Still, meet me at the last exit to Babylon, my love
Only there will I see you one more time, my love
Clutch me again to your sweet-scented skin
Clutch me like velvet-wrapped steel
Gasp out my name into my ear
Make all my senses reel
Knowing all along
You're already gone
And I won't see you anymore
Still, meet me at the last exit to Babylon, my love
Only there will I see you one more time, my love
Can't we pretend
It didn't end
And soon I'll hold you once again
Close my eyes with kisses four
Come lie down here by my side
Tell me of children we will have
And tell me of the horses they'll ride
It's far too late
But still I'll wait
Though I won't see you anymore
Still, meet me at the last exit to Babylon, my love
Only there will I see you one more time, my love
