Before you leave me in the shadows of a love I can't erase Let me once more gaze upon the summer lightness of your face Don't you know I'll miss everything when you walk out the door So turn the light out when you leave cus I don't need it anymore I still miss your gentle lips and your hair against my face I'll still feel around for memories that I never can replace And I'll forever hear the silence of my loneliness entire But I'll never have to see that you're not mine If you go your way I'll go blind The smell upon your pillow will still wake me in the night But it's better than my dreams because they keep you in my sight And so I spend my life awake in darkness long into my years No sound but for my breathing and no warmth but for my tears I still miss your gentle lips and your hair against my face I'll still feel around for memories that I never can replace And I'll forever hear the silence of my loneliness entire But I'll never have to see that you're not mine If you go your way I'll go blind
