To twist her arms now.
She stares up at the stars when
The stars fell from her hair then
I bent down to collect them
And then she was gone
Oh I sleep just to dream her
I beg the night just to see her
That my only love should be her
Just to lie in her arms
Oh, I came there to find out
Find out she'd made up her mind, now
My arms are all tied up
To me she was blind

It seemed so unnerving
Still somehow deserving
That she could hold my heart so tightly
I know I'll miss her later
Wish I could bend my love to hate her
Wish I could be her creator
To be the light in her eyes

This space between us Where wingless dreams fall ear-less Will you not bear me witness With your back to me nowAnd still not see me here. Oh
despairing
