in the silence of my mind i can see our love was just a line to a grasp of air that's nowhere and while i wait for love's embrace my life is but a race since you're gone now all my light is left to waste i never learned the rule that love can be so cruel when it's over and done now i can't believe that what they say is true how love can be renewed because once it's abused i never learned the rule that love can be so cruel when it's over and done now i can't believe that what they say is true how love can be renewed because once it's abused then it's through there's no laughter in your smile and all that's left are shadows in my mind of a different place and you face and in the quiet of my heart the sadness lingers on now i just have a different point of view since you've been gone
