Silent Room

In my silent room I listen for the ghosts of my desires...

And like a cold romance I close my eyes and reach to touch you somewhere

Between these faded sheets I strip you down and hold you so close to me

Is there someone here or just desperate dreams of you here in my room

In my silent room a memory of your touch passes through me

And in the air I breathe a scent of your sweet body lingers softly

I can hear your voice pleading me to fall deep into submission

But there is nothing here - nothing more than dreams

Dreams here in my room

Here I wait in silence

It is cold and it is dark

I lay still in anticipation

For the warmth of your embrace

I poured out my soul to you

I ripped out my heart for you

And it's getting colder

And I'm getting older

Come break the silence of this night...

In my silent room with nothing more than faith to keep me breathing

And in my broken world where moments lost in time return to haunt me

I call out your name and I can see your face - words escaping your lips

But you are nothing here - nothing more than this...

Silence here in my room
