Different Piano Song

When the leaves fell away to December
Sitting as if alone on the front porch steps
Holding on to the last of the embers
And you stared at the dark
As if cursing the stars
I wanted to hold you then

I wish I could lift away
Your veil that's colored with pain
But I don't know what to say anymore
Cause every time I try
To be there by your side
You build your walls up high and turn away
Darlin I love you
And that'll never fade

Well I know it surrounds you babe
All the weight of the world that drags you down
And you can't find the ways to explain it
But I see in your eyes
Your searchin for quiet
And I wanna help you find it

I wish I could lift away
Your veil that's colored with pain
But I don't know what to say anymore
Cause every time I try
To be there by your side
You build your walls up high and turn away
Darlin I love you
And that'll never fade
