i thought you'd come back

at least i prayed (so i prayed)

the romance has been dead for years

but i've been too afraid

to dig the grave (so i prayed)

relief, support, never came



memories carry me through the days

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



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



maybe love will find us again

for there is always tomorrow

sincerely 'til the end



close my eyes

just for tonight

the sun still sleeps

and when she wakes

you'll be a memory
