Come to me...

Come to me in the dark of the night
And whisper my name 
In your rhythmical, pacific, voice
Gently hold me close to you
And let me fall asleep
On your magnetic chest

Let my first vision of daylight
Be accompanied by your quiescent,
Genteel, body next to mine
Your beautiful eyes shut,as you dream,
I delicately wake you  
With a gentle warm kiss

Walk with me to the ocean
And smell the sweet sea
As the rising sun warms the sand
Sit with me on the beach
And let's listen to the sound 
Of the dancing waves

Time to walk away....



There's the silhouette 
of two broken angels on the wall,
and I guess that's us.
Before,
before you even speak,
promise me you'll leave here
without ever remembering 
the roads to return.

I burnt out all the candles,
at the reception 
praying for faith and 
hope and deliverance, 
a single white dove and 
a symphony of angels 
to save us from this.

Cause Babe, I've been 
loving you forever 
and now it just 
breaks me to speak, 
but we've thrashed each other 
around these walls so long;
it's hard to remember a time 
when we could just talk.

My throat's burnt out 
from the fighting 
and there's nothing 
left in here 
to give to you 
from inside. 
For all these years 
we've given up, 
and broken down, 
risen up and beaten love 
to find each other again;
now I can't even look 
you in the eyes 
or find the words 
to say good-bye.

Darlin', no matter what 
the final words 
remember they'll 
fade to grey. 
Just as the credits 
will roll...  
till everything we 
were to each other 
will fall between 
dreams and memories, 
and the I love 
you's we've been screaming 
will find a fresh face. 
But we're leaving empty, 
except for this solid love 
that's hollowed us on the insides.

I know it's hard, 
but it's hard... 
we walk away.
