I thought you'd come back at least I prayed (so I prayed)
The romance has been dead (the romance is dead, the romance is dead)
For years (you come back)
But I've been too afraid to dig the grave (so I prayed)
Relief support never came

Memories carry me through the day
Of when we were kids
And angels came to watch us play

Close my eyes, just for tonight
The sun still sleeps, and when she wakes
Close my eyes, just for tonight
The sun still sleeps, and when she wakes

A movie that plays in my mind
Remembering you helps me survive
Every day a re-run of the next
I promised to stay by your side
That all would change, I can't complain
Another victim of the game

Close my eyes, just for tonight
The sun still sleeps, and when she wakes
Close my eyes, just for tonight
The sun still sleeps, and when she wakes

Maybe love will find us again
For there is always tomorrow
Sincerely till the end
Close my eyes just for tonight
The sun still sleeps and when she wakes,
Close my eyes just for tonight
The sun still sleeps and when she wakes

Close my eyes, just for tonight
The sun still sleeps, and when she wakes
Close my eyes, just for tonight
The sun still sleeps, and when she wakes

You''ll be a memory (be a memory)
You''ll be a memory (be a memory)
You''ll be a memory (be a memory)
You''ll be a memory, memory, memory, memory.

Never forgot the time you made me feel alive
When death was on my mind
Or when you held onto me
When the world let me fall behind

You were love to me rather than just a word
A friend was all you were
And it changed my heart

Stood next to me through the storm
Felt the wounds and kept me warm

Something I had never seen before
And I thank you

I tried so hard to be her day
But the night has already taken me away

Shedding dreams under the maple tree
Where I carved your name

Nothing left, not even time
Straight reads the line

His life had reached the end
Wanting only to be loved by Adrienne

Letters explained his grief
But she would never read
His wrists would bleed
But she would never see

So he took his life at the age of 23
And she had always loved him
Be he would never know
For she covered her love
Like stars cover the sky

Hiding her heart
Fearing what he would find inside
Years took her away
A widow she remained

Holding him deep inside
Wishing she too would die

Time favors no one and if we wait
We too can fall in love
A second too late

Tears run down my face just like the last
No different from yesterday

Sick from the mirror
Do these prayers feel sincere
The dirt never washes clear
You were good, so good

I grew to love your lies
Until I put you in the past
Love was lust until he revealed
The man behind the mask

Will the scars go away
In this world I have no place

Forgive me Jesus this time I cry
I rip my heart out to give to you
Alone it never did me any good
Hold me close, wash my mind
Destroy the me that lives inside

Never expected it to arrive so soon
But as the night drifted on
It came time to say goodbye
Turning your back and walking away
This cold winter morning is all that remains

Why couldn't you tell me to my face
Instead of hiding until I lost faith

A heart gets broken as a life gets set free
And all I asked was love me

Years passed, seasons changed and I waited
(hate time to say goodbye, hate time)
Soon after was the pain
That would never reach you
You've gotten over me
But it seems I'll never get over you
On me I place this blame
Regrets

Praying heaven will open wide
And hold you tight
As for me, I'll be alright

This impact you would have
The songs I'd write
Dreams or you changing your mind
Anything to pass the time

But for now
I hope you can hear me as I cry
I love you and goodbye

You took me over the edge
And left me there to fall by myself

The word love meant nothing to you
I was taken in with your lies
And you knew I was too weak to leave
But you were wrong

You mean nothing to me now
Every time you think of me
I hope your heart dies
I have found my true love
And you now burn beneath my feet

You'll pay for everything you've done
If you could die
I'd be the one with the gun
From this day on
I'll write the songs you hate
And pray the prayers that drive you away

It's time to let the world know how
You tried to ruin my life

Up burn my thoughts of him
The virus leaves me

In my mind you never left
Falling wasn't true
I had faith you flew past the sky
Straight through the night
And the sun reflects in your eyes
Carrying the very same thing
In your heart that saved me
But maybe you've stopped listening

Falling on my selfish ways
It takes faith to see
So close your eyes and search
Deeper than just memories

I never stopped believing in you and me
Your leaving never changed things

I've been here for too long
To just walk away

Another year has gone by
Time just took it away
Friends have changed
Clear skies watched over us
But we've had our share of rain

Romance still sits untouched
By the water she waits patiently
Hoping I'll take her home someday
To think I lost her
That my dreams were her only place
But for her I've learned to wait

A smile remains on my face knowing
God hold her at night
Letting her know I'm on my way

So I'll hold my head high
For love may be a day
I can't say
But tomorrow awaits
Bringing me closer to you

You always amazed me
But that's the past

I kept silent and it rained for days
My insides were drenched
But I guess that's the part of growing up
I never wanted to learn

And I grew into the man
That you never knew
But I wouldn't be this way
If it wasn't for you
100 thank you's
It this is love
Fairy tales never came true
Judies are black in full bloom
And I died in the womb

Take it back, all that's gone
It's all still there like you left it
December stayed the same
Nothing ever changed but you

Every little dream covered in dents
Love can't fly tonight
Couples will rest, I'll be sleepless
So cry yourself to sleep
This is about broken hearts
This is about me
Bending again for nothing

I'd run to you but pain awaits
I'm coming home
But I'll be late
No deeper than imagination can be
Sight with nothing to see

What's faith if I can't believe
It's everything
A cure, but I make it a disease

God take me because I hate me

Make this moment last like the deepest sleep you never wanted to leave
