Lying Still

She came thru the door round my place She was not the same I reached out my hand to touch her face She turned her head away Her words flew in empty circles Reasons unexplained I saw that her thoughts were somewhere else We made love anyway Lying still in your arms And the tears came down She cried her pain And like the rain that draws a cloud across the sun The tears flow on She cried the pain she felt inside As night touched the sky with moonglow She opened up her heart The tides of emotions ebb and flow Washing us apart We talked thru the night in whispers As the silent city lay Reasons she gave cut deep and hard The dawn broke angry grey Lying still in your arms Heartbeats cold She cried my pain Like thunder rolling thru an aching winter sky Heartbeats cold Her pain Lying still in your arms But the tears came down She cried my pain And like the rain that draws a cloud across the sun The tears flow on She cried the pain I felt inside The future dissolves in the tears The morning surrenders the years How can you say our love wasn't real When I can see how you feel Another time Another place I won't cry for her No more The days go on But the nights are long I'll remember her For sure Still in your arms
