She came thru the door round my place

she was not the same

I reached out my hand to touch her face

she turned her head away

her words flew in empty circles

reasons unexplained

I saw that her thoughts were somewhere else

we made love anyway



lying still in your arms

and the tears came down

she cried her pain

and like the rain that draws a cloud across the sun

the tears flow on

she cried the pain she felt inside



as night touched the sky with moonglow

she opened up her heart

the tides of emotions ebb and flow

washing us apart

we talked thru the night in whispers

as the silent city lay

reasons she gave cut deep and hard

the dawn broke angry grey



lying still in your arms

heartbeats cold

she cried my pain

like thunder rolling thru an aching winter sky

heartbeats cold

her pain

lying still in your arms

but the tears came down

she cried my pain

and like the rain that draws a cloud across the sun

the tears flow on

she cried the pain I felt inside



the future dissolves in the tears

the morning surrenders the years

how can you say our love wasn't real

when I can see how you feel



another time

another place

I won't cry for her

no more

the days go on

but the nights are long

I'll remember her

for sure



still in your arms
