if you could see me now

here they come

every night the same

silent stars

light from a distant flame

just like the memories of you

that i hold inside

i see you touch

but all the warmth has died

empty rooms

crowded by the past

time is my enemy

days keep moving faster

but the nights alone can be

an eternity

that never heals the scars

of foolish pride

if only you could see me now

goodbye is not so easy now

the freedom that i walked away to gain

is nothing but these chains

that you alone can break

and you would free me now

your heart would come undone

just looking at me once

and my love would bring you back

if only you could see me now

here i am

stranger to a smile

trying to fight the tears

missing by a mile

i'm not the one who laughed at you

on that yesterday

when you warned me not to throw your love away

if you could only see me now

goodbye is not so easy now

the freedom that i walked away to gain

is nothing but these chains

i know your heart would break

if you could hear me now

your heart would come undone

if you could hear me once

hoping love will bring you back

if only you could see me now

like the lonely moon

you see above

that sails the dark alone

forever

i have no light of my own

other the love we've known

so long ago

together

if you could feel me now

your heart would come undone

if you could touch me once

i know love will bring you back

if only you could see me now
