Mark Sheeky - For What Once Was Lyrics

Speak in mysteries, speak your memories
Right into my core
For in this heart I ache
For what once was and what can never be
For the words that I will never hear
The words taken flight too soon

Speak in mysteries, speak your memories
Laid imprinted on my being
The scars I carry tell tales
Of snares and tarried times
Long distant in the past
Times when light and shade
Flitted and danced their dreams for me
Long gone once respected feelings
Held a sacred stories bound in ornate glory
Less of now and more of then
A vision in my dream
Story with no end
My fairytale talisman

Speak in mysteries, speak your memories
To the silence of these walls
Entombed in what once was
And what can be no more

Without response I sing this song
Night the only recipient
Of a vacuous invitation
To one who won't reply
