The day starts
The day ends
Time crawls by
Night steals in, pacing the floor
The moments creep
Yet I can't bear to sleep
'Til I hear you sing
And weeks pa**
And months pa**
Seasons fly
Still you don't walk through my door
And in a haze
I count the silent days
'Til I hear you sing once more
And sometimes in darkness
I dream that you are there
But wake holding nothing
But the cold night air
And years come
And years go
Time runs dry
Still I ache deep in my core
My broken soul
Can't be alive or whole
'Til I hear you sing once more
And music, your music
It teases at my ear
I turn and it fades away
And you're not here
Let hopes pa**
Let dreams pa**
Let them die
Without you, what are they for?
I'll always feel
No more than halfway real
'Til I hear you sing once more
