An empty house, the roof's on fire You're fighting with the flames My memories and my desires run Like the water through the holes
And I wonder why this dream won't fade This constant blue of the darkest shade Weighs heavy on your troubled mind And I call your name, but I can't get through And is hard on me when is hard on you Oh dear, if only I could find A way to ease your troubled mind
I'm looking for remains among the ruins The dust has settled on your eyes From the outside, those ghosts They aren't really there at all But I can't seem to stop them From throwing shadows on your wall
If I knew how I'd calm your nights And soothe your soul And I'd clear your sight Oh, I would fix you I'd put things back in place And wave goodbye to bygone days
Oh, I wonder why this dream won't fade This constant blue of the darkest shade Weighs heavy on your troubled mind And I call your name, but I can't get through And is hard on me when is hard on you Oh, dear love, if only I could find The way to ease your troubled mind
