The touch of lips the close of eyes
They matter more than you surmise
I hide it all in secret boxes
Until tomorrow when we first meet
I watch you fade before my eyes
I can't take it, but I won?t look away
Maybe the fires that feel so cold
They won?t completely die away
I don't want to, I don't want you
I don't want you to forget
I don't want to, I don't want you
I don't want you to forget
I may not let you see my pain
I may not speak hard words in anger
To you maybe it isn?t really strange
You being loved by a stranger
I won?t give you up just yet
I will come calling at your door
Ours is a home we can't get to anymore
(Chorus)
Behind your eyes there is a distance
I ask you if you?d like to dance
You mistake me for a healer
I'm just a desperate man stealing one last chance
