Promise (The Cult Of Eurydice) |
The silence of the park |
The moonshine after dark |
Came to keep her company |
The tiny golden cross lay upon her throat |
Hands clutching tight her rosary |
The rain upon her lips |
Eyes opened with a kiss |
Just too late for us to see |
She sits upon the ground |
Face covered by a shroud of midnight canopy |
And when the lightning starts |
The secrets in her heart |
Merge within the rain patterns |
And when the shadows fall |
The promise of it all Is lost inside the tears that linger on All the things we’d hoped |
Would always keep us close |
Stand between us now, as fences |
The letters that we wrote |
Have all gone up in smoke |
And now you’re just too far to listen in When all but hope is lost |
You believe at any cost |
In things that make the living lighter |
And when the shadows fall |
The promise of it all |
Is lying in the bed besider her |
