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 youI can see you in my minds rose-tinted eye..
Somewhere you're drifting by
Your heels rolling sparks on the lucky streetWhile here am I left behind
Stunned and blind
But I can see you from here
I can see you so clearYou are the light
you are the light
You have the day
I have the night
But we have the early hours togetheryou're gone, and heaven cries
A thunderstorm breaks from the northern sky
chasing you back to the daily grindYou're gone and where am I?
A haunted life
The ghost of your laughter
The half empty glass
The half empty glassAnd I wait
till midnight tolls
Two souls almost touching in the dark
I'll be allrightYou 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 togetherWritten by: Marillion, Julia Meyer
