Face the Sun

when no longer do you share
love is truly done
the heart never lies
when it's time to face the sun

for emptiness can't be disguised
from the morning light
the loneliness comes shining through
that was hidden by the night

now it's time to face the sun
into tomorrow we can clearly see
our love is done
soon to be a memory
