In the Dark of Night

As you all peacefully sleep My heart is awoken by the darkness of the night I slumber through this empty house For I carry in me a heavy heart I light a candle, then a few The movie of my past now flashes before my eyes I stare at the empty walls, where pictures once hung I hear the ghostly voices of lovers past I hear the silence of dreams escaped A sad faced mime touches my shoulder Whispers of I feel your pain drift out the open window Alone In the dark of the night
