I'm standing frozen at your door, afraid of what's inside
I greet the nurse who knows me all too well
I ask if you have left your bed
She just sighs and shakes her head
And says you're having one of those days
These days are my little hell
It means they came and they erased you
Took you away and then replaced you
With someone using your name
Who looks exactly the same
But now the real you is gone, is gone, is gone
Life's short, the briefest dream
But in the narrow hours in between
May you find love and may then you always hold on, and on, and on
I watch your eyes that won't see mine
I reflect back to a time those eyes burned bright, not long ago
How I miss that light, that life
How I need my friend, my wife
But now what reflects in your eyes is a man you don't know
Find love and, find love and hold on tight
Grant me a, grant me another night
Far from this terrible place and the stranger who wears your face
Before sundown, before it all went so wrong
