Your Silhouette

Something in the way you held me
Heaven in the words you said
Tonight I'm looking at the open window
Lying in our empty bed

I try in vain to remember
So afraid to forget
How light the snow was falling last December
On your silhouette

Clinging to a memory of you
Lying by a winter's flame
The night I told you I was born to love you
And how I'd never be the same

For as long as I'm living
I will always regret
How all the time I never took a picture
Of your silhouette

I used to close my eyes
And only see your face
But time was made to fly
And carry you away

How light the snow was falling last December
On your silhouette

Oh, and maybe if I try to listen
I can hear you call my name
From out across the great and mighty distance
Something like an open sea

Helping me to remember
So afraid to forget
How light the snow was falling last December
On your silhouette
