I followed you, I shadowed you tonight
Through waking breath and dreams I walked with you
Winds quickened, trees covered the city lights
Coyotes wimpered sad songs to the moon
I'm waiting once more for a sign or sound
That tells me you know I am standing here
Releasing sighs to make you turn around
But you keep moving -- guided by your fear
Did you think that time would heal our wounds?
Did you think that somehow we could face
The emptiness and lonely darkened rooms
Alone? Or leave it all in careless haste?
I whispered. Did you ever hear my voice?
I'll stay behind. I have no other choice.
