Lyrics

Gone Away

You say it won’t be so bad,
That I should stay just as I am.
But you’ve gone away from me,
Though not from my memory.

You, yes you, look at me,
You listen, but you just can’t see.
You don’t remember, you’ve let it fade,
Like shadows cast by light betrayed.

Do you know me, or just pretend?
Am I a stranger, just a friend?
Why, oh why, please tell me how,
Give me answers, here and now.

I see myself reflected bright,
In your face, in your light.
I see you there, but where are you?
Your presence feels like something new.

Chorus:
Darkness and silence,
Where’s the will to fight this?
Where’s the joy, where’s the kiss,
Where’s the spark we used to miss?
Where has it gone,
The love we shone?

The days pass by,
But time won’t fly.
The hours freeze, they won’t move on,
And I don’t know what went wrong.
Can you hear me, do you feel?
I’ll hold your hand, make it real.
Don’t be afraid, I’ll guide your way,
No matter how long, come what may.

Mon, Tue, Wed,
Thu, Fri, Sat, Sun,
Day by day, night by night,
I’ll give you strength, I’ll be your light.

Chorus:
Darkness and silence,
Where’s the will to fight this?
Where’s the joy, where’s the kiss,
Where’s the spark we used to miss?
Where has it gone,
The love we shone?
