I'Ll Come Back Soon

This year's sound is over
like an echo from the hills.
I'll only pray when the night comes
I'll stay only when you heal my pain.

You just closed the gate
You stole my hope
And for your promises I grope
to fill my hands.

So how can I hold the light?
The sun's risen dreams
I still owe words supremes
My soul hides and redeems.

You know I've lost the way
There are no words enough to say.
Just hold my tear
I'll come back soon, I'll come back soon
I'll come back soon, I'll come back soon.

From the song ''Goodbye'' - Elton John.
