The Darkest Nights

For so long I have felt alone
Content to live with unrest
Longing faded into countless
Nights that buried my weary heart
But you brought an end
To this dead hour
And meaning to a
A calloused life
Held in your arms
But far from my heart
Held in your arms
But too far from my heart
These thoughts will carry me
Through the darkest nights
While your eyes rest in
These thoughts will carry me
Through the darkest nights
While your eyes rest in mine
I remember the way you looked
At me and the way you drove
Drove me wild
With one deep sigh
Scattering pieces of my
My restless mind
Forgetting all that we
We have left behind
We have left behind
We have left behind
We have left behind
These thoughts will carry me
Through the darkest nights
While your eyes rest in
These thoughts will carry me
Through the darkest nights
While your eyes rest in
These thoughts will carry me
Through the darkest nights
While your eyes rest in
These thoughts will carry me
Through the darkest nights
While your eyes rest in mine
