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.
I know you had no blind hope of saving the world,
You only gave it and asked none in return,
You knew that, though years may pass by, that 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 the words.
I don't have some blind hope of saving the world,
I only wanted you to know your love is returned,
I know that years have passed by, but loving takes more time for some of us.
Car crash, and another hero falls,
Breaking hearts and phone calls,
Though everyone's there, no one's there at all,
What now? What now? What now? What now?
Blind hope won't save the world,
I only wanted you to know your love is returned,
I know that years have passed by, but loving takes more time for some of us,
I don't have some blind hope of saving the world,
I only wanted you to know your love is returned,
I know that years have passed by, but loving takes more time.
