Drifting in this ocean
A serenade of silence
Longing for a moment, beside you
You sounded like a promise
Spoken in a whisper
A portrait of deception, I knew
Yet, I would never change a thing
For tulips only bloom in spring
And wither as the season change
Could you stay and numb the pain?
Hold me close
I don't want to lose you now
It's just you
Without you I just don't know how
For the clock keeps ticking forward
Storming in with stronger tides
Could you fight a little longer
This time?
Living in your shadow
Condemned me to the gallows
Bleed me till I'm empty
And blue
The covenant of golden rings
Defeated even greater kings
And even as their bones decay
You'd never let them get away
Hold me close
I don't want to lose you now
It's just you
Without you I just don't know how
For the clock keeps marching forward
And my ego festers pride
Could you stay a little longer
This time?
