Mandolin Orange - Until The Last Light Fades Lyrics

For my Eternal sunshine.. Two souls forged as one.

If y’all aren’t married to each other yet you should be! Haha. Y’all are awesome!

Beautiful so much adore this ever thank you

I am listening to this song and I feel like I want to cry.this song carries so much melancholy.I wish I could fully understand the lyrics,but being french its kind of difficult.Could someone post the lyrics of this song?I deeply would appreciate some help,and in return,i would post the french translation (lol).

"Until The Last Light Fades"

Born to die, born to die darling you'll live
No longer than your years
Heaven and earth are both on the market
Hell is nothing to fear

So where oh where have the lights gone, love
Has the sun retired for the day
Or has life outlived these eyes of mine
Please stay until the last light fades

Father oh my father I'll be standing in line
To face what faults are mine
It's not these old bones that I'll miss in my dying
It's the girl I'm leaving behind

So where oh where have the lights gone, love
Has the sun retired for the day
Or has life outlived these eyes of mine
Please stay until the last light fades

Love of mine, sweet love of mine I'll soon return
To the land to make room for the new
I give hell my worst and good to this earth
As for heaven it was found in you

So where oh where have the lights gone, love
Has the sun retired for the day
Or has life outlived these eyes of mine
Please stay until the last light fades

just fell in love with music again .its been a while... Thank you

Rather than comment on the act (they're great), I am going to give kudos to the video makers. There are so many videos online that are just awful. This one shows that the video doesn't have to be complex or expensive to be good. This one is very simple, but with good audio quality and both focus and framing well done. A good lesson for pending video makers.

i'd like them to play this when i die

Tell me why there is not at least five beautiful "Babies" in this room with you? With such Heavenly music, i am sure they wood all be sleeping! Forgive me for thinking only of myself.

Your music heals. God bless!

Emily Franz and Andrew Marlin Thank you for the beautiful music, Keep it up, I hope to see you live sometime in the Midwest. I know it would "play in Peoria" If only in my Car...

awesomeness at its best. havent heard a song I didnt like from Mandolin Orange...

This song is a beautifully honest expression of love; mortal and divine.

I love the simplicity of her voice, nothing pressed, just natural with effortless phrasing. His voice is the perfect compliment to hers.

This is what Gods love feels like...

wonderful as always.

..gets me erry time 💟 such lovers. I want to like it, unlike it... just to like it again.

I just love falling in love with these two. Very few have moved me so profoundly. I could listen to them for a very long time. Beautiful harmonies and excellent work on the instrument..

After the Civil Wars broke up i never thought i'd find a duo so perfectly matched... boy was i wrong!

A good friend of mine turned me on to this band. Yesterday was his funeral. I managed to mostly keep it together, until I listened to this song this morning.

I learned about this band just a few minutes ago. The third song that i listened 'Waltz About Whiskey' is exactly my situation right now though it hasn't kicked in yet because i haven't started hard yet.
It was like God was telling me something, and i did cry a little. God told me why i really do it and i didn't even know.

I am sorry for your loss ! Nothing wrong with crying it on out it can help you heal . I know this comment is late hope you are better

absolutley beautiful

Very very nice...The song, The voice, The mandolin, guitar all beautiful. Really enjoyed listening. Alyre & Lorenzo Old Time Music......Just listed (Jingle Bells)

If people were still cutting singles, this song and Waltz About Whiskey would be a natural and if country radio didn't play hell out of it, that would be their loss.
