lyrics

Sometimes your words at midnight stream through my memory
But your face is growing dimmer: I don't know how it can be
That you're gone from my life, yet you still haunt my dreams
And daybreak finds me wondering just what it all could mean

Walking through the woods in moonlight, there are no words left to say
I stumble blindly through the shadow as the long years slip away
And only now I realize that it's too late to count the cost
And I can only write those words to make my peace with those I've lost

So many nights lost, lamenting all the days
Opportunity knocked, but that same night it ran away
Your voice in my ear, your breath upon my skin
Closer than sweat, warmer than sin

Another morning broken, and reconstruction fails
Once more my train of thought has gone completely off the rails
But soon the world will turn without us, and new days won't be broken
By the words we should have said or the ones best left unspoken
