The grey of evening fills the room,
|
There's no need to look outside,
|
To see or feel the rain.
|
Then I reach across to touch her,
|
But I know that she's not there.
|
Rain keeps running down the window pane.
|
Time is running out for me.
|
Can't you see what you are doing to me?
|
Can't you see what you have done?
|
As I try to pass another long and sleepless night,
|
A hundred crazy voices call my name,
|
As I try to pass them by,
|
I almost can believe that she is here,
|
Here in the glow of the night.
|
|
Do you know what you have done?
|
Do you know what you've begun?
|
Do you see we shall never be together again?
|
All of my life.
|
|
Lonely people, empty rooms,
|
Pointless violence, silent tombs.
|
Could it be that we shall be together again?
|
|
Sheets of double glazing help to keep outside the night,
|
Only foreign city sirens can cut through,
|
Nylon sheets and blankets help to minimize the cold.
|
But they can't keep out the chilling sounds.
|
Will the nightmare soon give way to dreaming
|
That she is here with me?
|
Here in the glow of the night.
|
|
Do you know what you have done?
|
Do you know what you've begun?
|
Do you see we shall never be together again?
|
All of my life.
|
|
Lonely people, empty rooms,
|
Pointless violence, silent tombs.
|
Could it be that we shall be together again?
|
Could it be that we shall be together again?
|
|
In silence and darkness
|
We held each other near that night
|
We prayed it would last forever.
