you say a prayer to me   across the void of our bed   the darkness speaks to me   through all the lies in my head   across the roaring sea of all the things i've read   you wonder if i hear you at all      a moonsong plays tonight   darkly whispering my fears   and drowning out your sight   in clouds of unwanted tears   my kaleidoscope sight blinds me to the years   when i felt so lost without you.      and i don't know why and i don't know how   i'm still in love with you even now   but if love's been a shadow my whole life through   is it really so surprising that i never talk with you      i feel you search for me through the book of my life   i know you care for me, you want me as your wife   but what you'll never see is that your love is a knife   and i've already tasted that pain      and i don't know why and i don't know how   i'm still in love with you even now   but if love's been a shadow my whole life through   is it really so surprising that i never talk with you      you say your prayer to me   and then you turn off the light   and reach your hand to me and   through the walls of the night   i felt you touching me and then i know that this might   this might not be a shadow after all.
