Dark
In this quiet cold I can see my breath,
In this lonely dark it feels like death.
In my broken heart there's still love for you,
In my endless night, you don't love me too.
In your deep, deep sleep it's her in your dreams.
In your coldest night, she's your sunbeam.
In this dark, cold gale, you barely know me.
In this lonely emptiness you just don't see.
In my eternal search, you're my only choice.
In my broken cry it's you in my voice.
In your broken heart is love for another.
In your beautiful mind you think of no other.
In this disabling pain I wait for you,
In this endless storm it's all I do.
In my deep, deep sleep I dream of only you,
In my long days I wonder if you miss me too.
In your times of trouble I'll be there,
In your last moments, I still care.
