On a cold winters night
The rain pouring down...
She looks out her window
As the shadows close in around her...
There has always been an emptiness
A need that I never was able to fulfill...
My vacant heart is calling
Can no one hear its plight...
When happiness is just a dream
In memory's distant past...
Discovering...I pull myself into her eyes
Beyond my reflection I bathe in a tempest of...
Tomorrow's promises remained in yesterday
Faded words she once meant yet not enough to stay...
Gazing across the cracked plains of my soul
I see a mirage of the person I used to be...
It began as just a runny nose
And a tickle in my throat...
When all that's around you
Seems awkward with trouble...
Little girl you cry there's something wrong
I look around and you're alone...
Even when I'm far away
I won't forget you never...
