The hardest single time that we fell upon overcame us like a god Tonight, I will not try to harden truth with reasons But I turn the pieces over like I need them And maybe in some way I do I dare not now return for the roar of memories Or to see how slight a trace we left of our lives In another time, in another place You are standing there Above me My head in your hands And you know You live in everything I love And everything I'll never be You're traced in everything I touch You are the rhythm of my days And the spaces in between The darkness I defined has not forgotten me But ever presses closer the bounds of my reach Tonight, I will not try to harden truth with reasons A silence says it all It comes to remind me who I am
