lyrics

I never understand the years of silence
The hurt that all this bitterness can do
The feelings I could never kill by hiding
It took so long to find a way to you

However many times the path was open
I only heard the sound of closing doors
A word so often thought but never spoken
I meant it then but now I mean it more
Through all the years it’s you I waited for

Dreaming that it’s better here without you
When all the time I wonder where you are

Here where the sun can never shine
Here where the daylight never finds
In the street light’s gloom
In a cold barren room
Every time I raise my head
I’m thinking of you

I’ll never say this solitude was worth it
Till we can be together without pain
And now I know what took me so long learning
Whatever happens happens anyway
There’s nothing left to think about or say

Hard enough to lose what we had longed for
And harder still to lie here and forget

Here where the memories never sleep
Here where the world will never reach
In a heartless town
With its face looking down
Every time I hold myself
I’m thinking of you

Here where the sun can never shine
Here where the daylight never finds
In the street light’s gloom
In a cold barren room
Every time I close my eyes
I’m thinking of you
I’m dreaming of you
I’m thinking of you
And only of you
