Lyrics

How did we ever fall from grace?
Who would have known, far we have grown
Sweet, sullen image of your face
Hours alone in the unknown
In twilight I invoke they call
My blessed savior, sun and all
Forever pure this heart and soul
To last my young days through old
Plagued by the memory of the shore
Used to be mine now frozen in time
Why have you burned me to the core
Innocent crime, pain was all mine
Through all the darkness I was there
Against all odds for you I dared
When you were blind, I gave you sight
When days grew stale, I gave you night
I held you through the morning storm
Within our bed of silk so warm
Be gone despair, where is your face
Find presence grim in our heart’s grace
Hear me now, calling… where have you gone my love?
Save me, take me away, save me, I’m falling fast
come on and save me, take me away… save me
Out on the beach you held my hand
My sea and sun on golden sand
You gave to me a love reborn
And then you kissed me on and on
And on the eve of Winter’s day
You promised love eternally
But with a whisper you were gone
And you had done me wrong
Another day, another way I have to find my own
You turned your back twisting the facts to leave me hanging
On and on and on, farther from the sun
You were my friend, you were my end and it’s to you I send
A parting cry, a bitter sigh within the moonlight
On and on and on…better since I’m gone from you
From you… from you… from you
