A Gift of Time

About this track
I know your face it’s etched into my mind a gift of time and space destiny is waiting fate is on the line I know your face you're a photo on my wall that keeps me up at night I lie here waiting caught between the lines I see your coat on the kitchen chair a ghost of the one that was always there coffee stain on the counter And the scent of you all around But all the words that were left unsaid pages in our book that were never read, erased from the chapter what might have been our ever after and I can hardly catch my breath the memories come flooding back I'm drowning I know your face imprinted on my soul a scar that time won't heal the hurt is still too real your trail is going cold I know your face it's a song i know by heart and words I just can't shake are causing me to break they're pulling me apart I'm running out of time the rope is twisting and the curtain calls my mind's made up but my heart still falls into the pool of you I'm going under the sound of thunder is deafening but I won't surrender the undertow is strong but so am I I see your coat on the kitchen chair a ghost of the one that was always there coffee stain on the counter and the scent of you all around But all the words that were left unsaid pages in our book that were never read erased from the chapter we could have had our ever after and as the light of you grows dim thoughts of us come rushing in I've been holding my breath too long
