Ooooooh... (~~~~~)
Just driftin'... (~~~~~)
The hues we once knew are lookin' pale
And every promise began to fail
Like echoes lost on a lonely trail
Leaving just a whisperin' gale...
Tell me, sugar, what went amiss here?
(Tell the truth, what went wrong, my dear)
The joy that we knew, now just a tear
(A constant hurt, wishin' you were near)
Resonates in the quiet, oh so clear
(Memories linger, holdin' me in fear)
Our forever fractured, disappear...
(Just slowly fadin' from here...)
I struggled to keep, believe you me
(Gave it everything I had inside)
To stop that spark from settin' us free
(But the darkness just kept on its stride)
But somethin' snapped, down deep, you see
(A little piece of my spirit just died)
And now these teardrops flow endlessly...
(Just watchin' our love subside...)
Maybe?
Could it... maybe?
To still hold tight
To somethin' that ain't right?
Ain't... hold tight
So slight...ly
Just slight...ly
So slight...ly
The hours keep movin', never stall
(But time can't mend this broken wall)
The ghost of your touch answers my call
(Like a soft rain startin' to fall)
A sweet hello, then nothin' at all
(Just a soft murmur in the hall)
This empty space starts to enthrall...
(Nothin' feels the same, that's all...)
Pick your sorrow, honey, make your choice
(What kind of pain you wanna feelin'?)
This lonesome path ain't got no rejoice
(Wish you were here, my wound to be healin')
My tired soul just hears a silent voice
(Pretendin' that my fate I'm still wheelin')
But the real truth, I ain't got no poise...
(Longin' for your lovin', the stealin'...)
(Alone... lone... hmmm... flown... oooooooh flown...)
