I remember the nights I watched as you lay sleeping
|
Your body gripped by some far away dream
|
Well I was so scared and so in love then
|
And so lost in all of you that I had seen
|
But no one ever talked in the darkness
|
No voice ever added fuel to the fire
|
No light ever shone in the doorway
|
Deep in the hollow of earthly desires
|
But if in some dream there was brightness
|
If in some memory some sort of sign
|
And flesh be revived in the shadows
|
Blessed our bodies would lay so entwined
|
|
[CHORUS]
|
|
And I will oh I will not forget you
|
Nor will I ever let you go
|
I will oh I will not forget you
|
|
I remember when you left in the morning at daybreak
|
So silent you stole from my bed
|
To go back to the one who possesses your soul
|
And I back to the life that I dread.
|
So I ran like the wind to the water
|
Please don't leave me again I cried
|
And I threw bitter tears at the ocean
|
But all that came back was the tide...
|
|
[CHORUS]
|
