Ready to embrace the day as we both break When the light stole in - it found me wide awake Wasted from a sleepless night, I reach to touch your hair Withdraw an empty hand - for you're no longer there In between the silence, living is an empty space Save the ticking of a clock whose hands are sweeping past its face And I just don't want to be lonely - night and day But as I look around me, I just feel that way For you only I turn my hand to something that would clear my head But I could not forget the parting words we shared I opened up my mind to all the pictures I could trace But I could not recall the contours of your face And, oh, you slipped away before I had the chance to say If I did something wrong, please tell me - I'll accept the blame
