The love that we shared
The endless nights we felt the rapture
Now that they’re gone
I can’t go on
A moment’s embrace
The kind that hearts so tend to capture
Now that they’re gone
Everything’s wrong
Now that my nights are cold and empty
Now that my life’s a darkened void
So many questions go unanswered
So many still stone left unturned
Now that you’re gone
Now that my life is all but over
Where do I turn?
Where do I belong?
Without your love
Without your gentle soul to guide me
No passion to burn
Now that you’re gone
Now that my nights are cold and empty
Now that my life’s a darkened void
So many questions go unanswered
So many still stone left unturned
The love that we shared
The endless nights we felt the rapture
Now that they’re gone
I can’t go on
