Your eyes are like a fading light
Diminishing with the passing days

And oh how it tears my heart
To know the cause of it was me

 

that i should lie awake in the shadows
hearing the sound of your breath beside me

too in fear of sleep that i should lose you
or that you should be lost to me

 

for in the wake of the passing dark
you still fade away from me

to push me away and say nothing
the wrong between us will again be right

 

i pull you into my arms in darkness
you dont see it even as light dawns

i wipe my tears away but they'll never be gone
falling forever until we are reunited
