You have chosen dawn to leave
|
Don't bother me while I am sleeping
|
Life continues and though you go out
|
I'll sleep another hour or so
|
Though you think that I am fragile
|
I'm a river and I'll travel on whether you are here or not
|
You're not the only thing I've got
|
|
So turn the light off when you leave
|
Don't forget to leave the key
|
You know I'm going to miss your touch
|
You say that you can't help that much
|
But I would have loved to see you try
|
|
It's not that we committed sins
|
We wouldn't know where to begin
|
We just love different things in our lives
|
I love you and you loved time
|
Now that my time has gone
|
You have risen like the dawn
|
And you kissed me as if once we part
|
I might die of a broken heart
|
|
(chorus)
|
|
Though I will not try to change your mind
|
Believing what you left behind
|
Is a child who is lost confused
|
As a consequnce of loving you
|
I will not try to call your bluff
|
The truth would hurt you far too much
|
I'm sorry I got left behind
|
But now you're gone I feel fine
|
