lyrics

It was a time of love, but it’s over now.

But as you held on to my hand.
It came to me in a flash so grand.
Our history.

And how the water flowed between us.



But I… I’m quiet now.



I lay in bed, my head buried in my pillow.

I wonder where the hell you are?

How many spirit friends you’ve made.
That personality.

And the music so within you.

But I… I’m quiet now.


I heard you cried for me, when I was young and foolish.
But we didn’t know about love.
And how you have to make it carefully.

So pray for me.

Cos’ I’m trying to look happy.



But it’s hard.
