You're Gone

You're gone as suddenly as you came to me Like nightfall followed dawn without a day between You're gone and suddenly I can't see I'm in the shadow of you I'm in the shadow of you I can see you in my minds rose-tinted eye Somewhere you're drifting by Your heels rolling sparks on the lucky street While here am I, left behind Stunned and blind But I can see you from here I can see you so clear You are the light You are the light You have the day I have the night But we have the early hours together You're gone and heaven cries A thunderstorm breaks from the northern sky Chasing you back to the daily grind You're gone, and where am I? A haunted life The ghost of your laughter The half-empty glass The half-empty glass And I wait 'til midnight tolls Two souls almost touching in the dark I'll be alright You are the light You are the light You have the day I have the night But we have the early hours We have the early hours We have the early hours together
