I woke one morning to see the grey outside The sky had lost its black disguise There was a feeling here inside That was a turning of my light The night has gone and though my eyes can't see The morning light has brought no peace for me I sit alone and the night comes back to me If you were near me when I walk If you could hear me when I talk But still your shadow follows close behind And just a silence weighing on my mind The night has gone and though my eyes can't see The morning light has brought no peace for me I sit alone and the night comes back to me If you were near me when I walk If you could hear me when I talk But still your shadow follows close behind And just a silence weighing on my mind Only you can make it right Take the darkness from the night There is nothing left worth living for And each day could swim more, more, more, more The days are gone when I could smile and pretend The nights are longer now, they never seem to end I sit alone and the night comes back to me If you were near me when I walk If you could hear me when I talk If you were near me when I walk If you could hear me when I talk But still your shadow follows close behind And just a silence weighing on my mind And just a silence weighing on my mind
