Fade away

Once again
be my shadow when I fear
All the voices
faded away in the chilly air
All lights slowly dimmed
even if the night was clear
I could just sit on the stone-cold chair
Again and again
I expected a smile to cheer me

And then
I SAW the shadow of the time
longer than what I could see
I HEARD you called my name
more softly than what I heard before




Once again
I know I dreamed about you
Again and again
I know that's the only way
I could spend time with you

Once again
be my shadow when I fear
All the voices
just fade away in the chilly air
