Silence

The stars lean down to kiss you

And I lie awake and miss you

i'm gonna cry while i'm laughing

coz I'll doze off safe and soundly

But I'll miss your arms around me

I'd send a postcard to you dear

coz I wish you were here

I'll watch the night turn light blue

But it's not the same without you

coz someday you watched this beside me

The silence isn't so bad

Till I look at my hands and feel sad

coz the spaces between my fingers Are right where yours fit perfectly!

I'll find repose in new ways

but I haven't slept in two days

coz cold nostalgia chills me to the bone

i'm getting blind with stars lights

but I'll sit on the front porch all night

As many times as i blink

I'll think of you tonight

and i won't feel so alone

When my brown eyes get brighter

And heavy wings grow lighter

I'll taste the sky and feel alive again

And I'll forget the world that I knew

But I swear I won't forget you

finally i'll escape this prison

you'll see that day i'm coming for you

if my voice could reach back through the past ...

I'd whisper in your ear,

Oh darling I wish you were here !
