When I can see the sun But not feel it on my skin When I can hear the music And my heart won’t tune in When I see your eyes alight But the tenderness is gone When I’m taking strides Pretending to be strong In it there’s despair as black as the night But in…
Taking time by the hand She walks Looking to the future An Orpheus curse But despite her aching heart She never turns back
I can’t not love you Just because They say it’s better in the long run I can’t not feel comfort In your smile Just because our future’s gone I can’t not feel empty I remember it’s gone Just because you’ve moved on I can’t not love you Just because I say it’s easier now that…
