I sit here high and dry
knowing you won't be mine
I come in last again
which I can accept as fine
I only wonder when,
when will I get to shine
don't punish me
with darkness
I need light
don't close shutters

And I'm faltering
in and out of love
with all the wrong
sparks of glory

I cannot stay and cry
so I'll shove off now
I wish to sail away into
the sunset with you on the bow
then I wouldn't stay awake
to wonder...would love allow
I want you
its over and
I can't grasp
this tragic loss

And I've faltered
in and out of life
with all the song;
end my story
