Losing ground Numbed and bound Silent tears Burn these eyes Loved once, now despised Wake Face this day As hope recedes See this light Fading in time When do you No long try in vain? To reach out one more time Opened doors Closed again and again You are always in my thoughts Never forgotten Shadows have fallen On me Walk away One with pain Within my room All these words Never heard So far away you cannot know My children Never forsaken Your light is fading From me You are always in my thoughts Never forgotten Never forsaken Father bid farewell to your children No longer there to watch over them Hear their express their disdain for you Too far away to explain While someone else has taken your place She is their keeper and their defence Shielded as they are from your influence Watch as they drift far away Never again will you see them play No one else can take their place Sometimes living is all that is left Some say another day us coming soon So much time is lost So much time.
