"Yellow Flag" - a black cat
Walk with me into the night,
remember me as we were;
angels who fled from the light,
never steady, never sure.
Don't think of our one last chance,
how we lost our way and sight.
Take my hand, can we just dance?
Before the dawn says good-bye,
walk with me into the night.
Memory will set us free,
walk with me into the night.
As dawn breaks no one will see
that we fled the final fight.
