Your Quiet light

You are the song played late at night Behind tightly closed curtains. You are the moonlit path on dark waters of A cold and restless sea. You are the long-awaited rain In a burning, weary city. An extraordinary creation, The kiss of the earliest spring. Stop me from losing my mind. In black and white dreams, I search for You. They keep saying you're no longer here, But I still hear your quiet light. And once again, the sunrise comes, And another hundred years go by. I found your letters in an old desk, All written, yet never sent to me. That summer you wanted to say you loved me And would always wait. I look for you in every passerby, In reflections of rain-soaked glass, In every life I might be living. Perhaps I'm alone again. Stop me from losing my mind. In black and white dreams, I search for You. They keep saying you're no longer here, But I still hear your quiet light. And once again, the sunrise comes, And another hundred years go by. If this is a dream, don't wake me up. If this is pain, let it burn me through. If you are only my memory, why are You all of my silence? Stop me from losing my mind. In black and white dreams, I search for You. Let them say you're no longer here. I will keep waiting through the dawn. Let a thousand years pass by. I will find you Even if I can't.
