Saturday |
[00:09.410] |
I watched you fly away |
[00:14.362] |
Across the empty sky |
[00:19.363] |
I turned around and waved goodbye |
[00:24.163] |
And now it's me alone |
[00:29.264] |
It's just an empty home |
[00:33.915] |
That's on an empty street |
[00:39.466] |
In a town that always sleeps |
[00:43.916] |
And a blind man in the darkness knows no difference |
[00:53.971] |
But I have grown accustomed to the colors that you bring |
[01:08.927] |
I check the dial tone |
[01:14.078] |
On the telephone |
[01:18.762] |
But when I try to speak |
[01:23.763] |
The reception gets so weak |
[01:28.663] |
I took an hour's drive |
[01:33.619] |
Into the countryside |
[01:38.571] |
The sky was bright and clear |
[01:43.521] |
But it was cold without you here |
[01:48.372] |
And my mind is turning back before I knew you |
[01:58.322] |
And the numbness was the only thing |
[02:03.074] |
I'd ever really known |
[02:08.374] |
And I was home |
[02:14.124] |
Long ago I was happy by myself |
[02:23.926] |
Long ago it was me and no one else |
[02:33.930] |
Long ago and then I saw your face |
[02:50.285] |
I got a photograph |
[02:55.238] |
Beneath a sheet of glass |
[03:00.089] |
Inside a cherry frame |
[03:05.040] |
But it is never quite the same |
[03:09.886] |
It's just a memory |
[03:14.885] |
A spot in history |
[03:19.989] |
It's no good to me |
[03:24.791] |
When I am living here and now |
[03:29.900] |
Oh |
[03:30.700] |
I've tried to make my peace with all the silence |
[03:39.407] |
I have tried to patch the cracks |
[03:43.836] |
I've got my finger in the dam |
[03:49.641] |
And I've tried to find contentment in seclusion |
[03:59.067] |
But I will never really smile |
[04:03.720] |
till the day that you return |
[04:09.378] |
Till you return |
