[Music & Words: Jon Oliva, Criss Oliva, Paull O'Neill] Desiree Listen to your heart Have the dreams all been scattered Are all the words just parts 'Cause in these ruins alone I've been watching you A ghost among these stones Desiree I've got to tell you What good's a tear without a face To soften its downward fall from grace And across my heart Desiree I wish you'd see Scars are the wounds that we all show Time only heals if you let go If you're letting go Desiree I wish you'd think of... If you only take chances When every angle's safe Have partnerless dances In castles where you wait But I see far away A distance in your eyes As you go on alone Piling up your alibis What good's a tear without a face To soften its downward fall from grace And across my heart Desiree I wish you'd see Scars are the wounds that we must show Time only heals if you let go If you're letting go Desiree I wish you'd think of... Lost in a movie script With no words left to say You leave on that plane alone And there inside a midnight fog I turn and walk away What good's a tear that falls from grace What good's a life that leaves no trace When its time is done Desiree I wish you'd see Who needs a heart that never bleeds Never retreats and never needs If it's all alone Desiree I wish you'd think of me
