When You Return

The Sun hides behind the glass
In silence, we trade our past
Empty streets beneath my feet
Love’s a lie, it’s bittersweet

When you return, eyes red from rain
Say love wasn’t in vain
Pain’s a river, life’s a dream
Fading slowly in the stream

We dance beneath the dying light
Where truth and lies meet in the night
The hands we held, now cold and gone
And I’m left here, waiting for dawn
