The Requiem Lyrics
A year has passed
Since I learned where you had gone
So far, so long
The last of you still infects my every move
Without you I’m confined
I’ll wait for you as you watch me fall If ever you cared
If ever at all
Just one more night, if not one last kiss
We’ll say goodbye, forget what we missed
I am starting to forget your eyes, shut tight all night
Miles away are the nights that we would say
Until death do we break
I’ll wait for you as you watch me fall If ever you cared
If ever at all Just one more night, if not one last kiss
We’ll say goodbye at last
Last night I packed your pictures away with all of your clothes The smell of you disappeared
Replaced by deafening calm
Last night I tore the last piece of you from my shaking hand I know you’re not coming back
Meet me there, I begged you not to leave that night
Wait for me
Wait for me
Wait for me
I’ll wait for you as you watch me fall If ever you cared
If ever at all
Just one more night, if not one last kiss
We’ll say goodbye, forget what we missed
Wait for me, wait for me
