Behind Silence and Solitude

you face me in silence and hope is in your eyes
unspoken yet pleading you wait for my reply
alone now i tremble in want of your embrace
let not tears fall for me, let me show the way
don’t know why you have such belief in m to justify this i’d try eternally
i will not forget what you’ve done for me shed not a tear i’ll be with you endlessly
how i wish i could say
what you want to hear
long ago i swore that i’d always keep you near
i know now it seems like my vow was empty then
but in time you will see i’d do it all again
i lie back close my eyes again
the dreams are there
my last chance slipped away
you’ll never know i cared
i count this with reason as most of my regret
now i hope you can see that i will not forget
