lyrics

So is this the silence that's carried me so far?
Or does the wind still sing it's song?
Has my heart been beating at all
Or have I been gone for too damn long?
If you linger it will hurt
But I'm not sure we're ready for the worst
Oh, the sun is falling from the sky
Can't you wait with me tonight?
We can talk about the people
The people we used to be
But not until, but not until
But not until the sun is gone
Can we fraternize with ourselves?
Because I remember the day
When all I had to do was pray
The help would trinkle down
And I, I remember your face
And the tears that followed
I, I remember the way
You used to laugh when you said I love you
Now I fumble for every word
I'm searching for the spirit
You know I hate being tied down
Tied around your finger in the rear-view mirror
Things may be closer than they appear
They say time heals almost everything
I won't heal if you're not here with me
Because I remember the day
When all I had to do was pray
The help would trinkle down
And I, I remember your face
And the tears that followed
I, I remember the way
You used to lie when you said I love you
