lyrics

While you sit at and home and cry
And I’m here wonderin’ why
Where’d you go?
‘Cause I don’t know
You hide inside and play below
If I could right my all my wrongs
I’d place them in this song
But now I’m faced with solitude
And love can be so cruel

I want to hold you close
I want to see your eyes
The loss we feel is no surprise
I can’t let you go
Even though….

Every day, the birds will sing
Amidst our suffering
And it don’t mean
I’ve let you go
You know that isn’t so
The earth spins ‘round and life goes on
With each new coming dawn
The clouds roll by
As if to say
That all will be ok

I want to hold you close
I want to see your eyes
The loss we feel is no surprise
I can’t let you go
Even though….

Why do our souls link? Amidst our suffering?
(Where did I fail you? Where did I fail you?)
While you sit at home and cry…
