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 me
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
