Blind Hope

a room thick with wine

and all of the sadness

of a heart that time alone won't heal

do you remember all the bad times

when precious few were found by my side

yet you stood by

while others whispered word of my demise

your presence a comfort in the the longest of nights

I cried and cried and you let me

hide behind the love you always gave

you only gave it and asked none in return

you knew that though years may pass by

loving takes more time for some of us

while in retreat to all our outer stations

death has caught us all by surprise

you told me you gave so long and nothing was returned

a burden that you no longer choose to endure

and all you were is gone now

buried by the years and lost in all of the words

I don't have

I only wanted you to know your love is returned

I know the years have passed by,

but loving takes more time for some of us

car crash and another hero falls

breaking hearts and telephone calls

though everyone's there, no one's there at all

what now?

what now, what now, what now?

I only wanted you to know your love is returned

I know the years have passed by,

but loving takes more time for some of us

I don't have

I only wanted you to know your love is returned

I know the years have passed by,

but loving takes more time
