Passion burning bright
In a silent goodbye
I'm watching you smile
For the last time
As soft as you were
Gentler you'll go
And all the thoughts
Of heart's desires
Melt away in a thought
That I'm too scared to say
"I never want to say goodbye"

As I lay... ever so awake
Hours long before the sun ascents
In bed with you is where I want to be
Watch you sleep and smile at the thought
That here, my dear is where I want to be
Baby, even though you’ll never know
The daydream of this - imagined scene

As hour of the bright draws near
I’ll drift further from the truth of you
Into rain and melancholy shades of blue
Makeup of my fake placed smile
Gives way through my dappled mind
The sun is peeking through the cracks
As rays of light eliminate obscurity of
My self delusion thoughts...

Flames of passion dying red
Ambers fading - turning black

Dreams of love filled thoughts
Turning into pain filled doubts

Mind caught in purgatory
Of self inflicted speculation

Angels falling from skies above
Demons raising from hateful contemplation

Roots never had a chance to take
Roses welting from the lack of faith

From the start you already knew
That what you felt was so untrue

Black roses is what I’ll give to you
To signify the end of what we meant to you.

Sounded like a drum
Arrow through the chest
Knees the ground hit
Heart is bleeding still
Never saw you come
Never saw you leave
No one stops to help
No one ever will...

I didn't know and couldn't see that
Ten years of chasing wild peaches at
Every turn had led me to
End up in Paradise of Hell
I lacked the strength to
Leave this wild orchard or
Ever thought I could
And then I saw your lovely face
A simple smile and a kiss
I realized I want to live my life with you
I'm turning leaves, I'm taking steps and
Baby to you I say “Hello my love” and
To the rest “Goodbye”
