The moon shines forth her light into my eyes,
I see the path before me behind so long ago.
Images of life leaving who is left before my soul,
severing the cords of life my song.
Singing out into the darkness my home,
allowing fears to face the demons within.
I say goodbye to you as my heart breaks,
why have I ignored the chances I use to see?
Into tears my dreams shatter before me this rain,
clouds so dark in a heart dying to beat again.
Lie to me again before I fall away from myself,
can you tell me you love me again?
Somehow my eyes can only hear what you let me see,
blinded by everything else in this life but you.
In my painful moments together I stand strong,
fictitious man speaking only what sounds good.
I have tried to forget myself under your touch,
making me know how little I truly understand.
Was it in the light that you made me see clearly my heart,
how dead I was only to be alive in your eyes.
I don’t cry tonight for who I was before,
I weep only the joy you gave to me.
So loving you are to me in ways hard to believe,
the ways you touch me from so far away.
My tears have run dry bleeding out my soul,
you hold me still in these waterfalls of love.
I will be waiting here in our dreams shared as one,
knowing only one thing, I know you love me.
