Sometimes I Get Lost

Sometimes I get lost 
Now that you have wandered far away 
Remembering our love's sweet cost 
Every moment of the day 

I have danced inside your eyes 
To your music, so sweet and clear 
Surrendered to you in the heat of the night 
My wanton cries filled your ears

Memories come on a midnight breeze 
The taste of your sweet breath 
Your gentle caress on my ivory keys 
As we embrace the little death 

You soothed away my restless feelings 
Tasted my river of tears 
Then left me grieving 
Turning my hopes into fears 

My heart is made of stone now 
My dreams have faded away 
Frozen beneath the garden bough 
Where my love was buried, that day
