Till I Hear You Sing

The day starts The day ends Time crawls by

Night steals in Pacing the floor

The moments creep Yet I can't bear to sleep

'Till I hear you sing

And weeks pass And months pass Seasons fly

Still you don't walk through the door

And in a haze I count the silent days

'Till I hear you sing once more

And sometimes at nighttime

I dream that you are there

But wake holding nothing

But the empty air

And years come And years go Time runs dry

Still I ache down to the core

My broken soul can't be alive and whole

'Till I hear you sing once more

And music your music It teases at my ear

I turn and it fades away

And you're not here

Let hopes pass Let dreams pass Let them die

Without you what are they for

I always feel no more than halfway real

'Till I hear you sing once more
