|
You've left me with such a silent world, |
|
Where evenings are calm, but |
|
I'm restless |
|
And my breath has become as thin as the wind. |
|
Not even the mighty sky could fill the space you left behind |
|
Not even when it rains. |
|
No, nothing takes your place |
|
Your emptiness too great to fill. |
|
I have been holding my breath, |
|
For too many nights in a row, |
|
And somewhere on coastlines unknown to me |
|
You paint your dreams, |
|
With reds and blues and greens. |
|
Yea you're painting daffodils by the sea, |
|
Without me. |
|
Today in a breeze |
|
I sensed your perfume |
|
But you were nowhere near. |
|
And in reverie, |
|
I felt you holding me. |
|
And even in my dreams |
|
I shake from the fear |
|
That you've been swept away. |
|
By the rhythm of the waves |
|
I whisper in your ears. |
|
I have been holding my breath, |
|
For too many nights in a row, |
|
And somewhere on coastlines unknown to me |
|
You paint your dreams, |
|
With reds and blues and greens. |
|
Yea you're painting daffodils by the sea, |
|
Without me. |
|
I would give away |
|
My sweetest memories, |
|
If I could just be with you again. |
|
Be with you again. |
|
I have been holding my breath, |
|
For too many nights in a row, |
|
And somewhere on coastlines unknown to me |
|
You paint your dreams, |
|
With reds and blues and greens. |
|
Yea you're painting daffodils growing by the sea, |
|
Without me. |
|
Last night |
|
I dreamt you were with me, |
|
Finally I could breathe. |
