When I close my eyes
I can’t even dream of you
pictures make me smile.
I lie in my bed
and I just feel so empty
and there’s anger too.
What is my purpose?
The sun stolen from my heart,
The world bleached and dead.
I can’t find the words,
I’ll never have what they have,
They make it easy.
If I could just be-
I want to enjoy the sun
With you on my knee.
To see you grow up,
But that’ll never be me,
I’ll just be right here.
But your love alone,
I will take without asking,
In the night I will,
What is mine shall be,
Even if it is yet known.
It waits for me still.
Those green hills stretch on,
Glistening and wet with due,
Many have laid there.
I try to be sad,
Brought down by the wind and rain.
Those cold slate grey skies.
You wont let me be,
Every waking moment,
You fill it with light.
When I want shadow,
You come and chase them away,
Beaming like the sun.
The coming of spring,
Brings me renewed hope,
Just to hear you laugh.
Just to see you smile,
Lets the shining sun right in,
There’s no stopping it.
I pine for that light,
But it casts a long shadow,
Quite unbearable.
There’s no time for us,
We wasted the one moment,
Set aside for us.
There’s no place for us,
It’s all decided for us,
Just one sweet moment.
There’s no chance for us.
What is this thing that fills dreams –
slips away from us.
In my silent dreams,
I’m still waiting for you there,
But you don’t know me.
I reached out for you,
Already it’s far too late,
I should be there now.
I know I failed you,
It’s dark when I close my eyes,
You’re not there now.
I’d do anything,
Just to be the one who waits,
Outside those same gates.
For you to come home,
As the summer slowly fades,
I’ve you to keep warm.
To kiss your soft cheek,
Is all I’ll ever need now,
To carry me on.
Its getting darker,
I only see you in dreams.
I can still feel you.
You are always here,
So close, but I cant touch you.
You weigh down my heart.
It’s getting colder.
I so wanted to be there.
But I never will.
