It starts at daylight
|
I see him
|
Before my sad eyes
|
I hear him breathing
|
Oh lover, need you to lead me
|
No never thought that you'd leave
|
|
That was my veil
|
That was my time
|
Once held secret
|
But now lies
|
|
No words can
|
Heal my heart
|
Inside I'm broken
|
Now it's done
|
Was she a pretty girl ?
|
Does she have pretty hair ?
|
Was she soft-spoken ?
|
Was there a love there ?
|
|
That was my veil
|
That was my time
|
Once held secret
|
But now lies
|
|
Give back my veil
|
Give back my time
|
No more secret
|
You give me lies
|
|
Give me back my veil
|
Give back my life
|
No more secret
|
You give me lies
|
Lies
|
