We had it all Now we're at a standstill I mill around in this jail cell Needing a way to escape Never finding the door that leads to you Hoping you never leave Basking in the warmth of a new day Please say you'll be there And that you'd hold my hand, once again

A voice awakens me I sit and stare Without a care Because I know you'll be there Maybe not right away But soon Oh, so soon

A tear floats down my cheek In the darkness - a scream Never to be heard I dare not speak Won't this dream ever fade? The dawn rescues me Fading like a blade on rough skin It wasn't meant to hurt But got lost in the part You still remain in my heart
