You watch as what you dream of
Disappears into the sun
You've reached out hoping to grasp
A feeling that just fades too fast
Some things aren't built to last
But you hope this will come to pass
Awake at night you see the signs
And a stranger in the glass
She comes in like the night
Darkening the skies
You wait for her with sunken eyes
She flashes you a smile
From behind the haze
The days always seem brighter when it rains
You sing your song so soft and slow
Hoping it'd soften the blow
Asleep at night but in your dreams
Plays a distant melody
You know that smile is a gold mine
The memories play in your mind
There are cards you'll never show
Unless someday she lets go
Under the star-lit sky
She comes in like the night
Darkening the skies
You wait for her with sunken eyes
She flashes you a smile
From behind the haze
The days always seem brighter when it rains
