I remember the nights I watched as you lay sleeping 
Your body gripped by some far away dream 
Well I was so scared and so in love then 
And so lost in all of you that I had seen 
But no one ever talked in the darkness 
No voice ever added fuel to the fire 
No light ever shone in the doorway 
Deep in the hollow of earthly desires 
But if in some dream there was brightness 
If in some memory some sort of sign 
And flesh be revived in the shadows 
Blessed our bodies would lay so entwined 
 
[CHORUS] 
 
And I will oh I will not forget you 
Nor will I ever let you go 
I will oh I will not forget you 
 
I remember when you left in the morning at daybreak 
So silent you stole from my bed 
To go back to the one who possesses your soul 
And I back to the life that I dread. 
So I ran like the wind to the water 
Please don't leave me again I cried 
And I threw bitter tears at the ocean 
But all that came back was the tide... 
 
[CHORUS]
