When the  evening stretches out across the sky
and the winds calm with those peering stars
and all these sad retreats that pass by my eyes
remind me that I may have gone too far

for I have taken your love, and threw it on the ground
step on your happiness, and discarted those frowns
I should have reach for you, in your dire straits
instead of watching your soul and body break

you gave to me a love so unrelenting
I handed you a bag of false promises
theres no need for my repenting
for I know your love for me is dismiss

as I sit hear on this quite night, with those peering stars
reflecting in my mind where you are
perhaps in a distant rendezvous I will see
what real love was meant to be
