[Verse 1]
You looked at me with troubled eyes
And brushed the hair from your face
Then asked me into your room
I knew what you were trying to say
[Verse 2]
I saw shadows dance and die
In the flames, upon the walls
You said you couldn't find the words
But I knew that soon you would be gone
[Verse 3]
I pictured firelight in your hair
As the moments slipped away
We sat holding memories till morning
And watched the coming calls of dawn
[Verse 4]
Your voice in whispers soft but clear
In the silence of the room
You couldn't find the words
But I knew that soon you would be gone
