I felt her shadow
I touched her white
face in my hand
a sad glow in the night
her hollow eyes
black as her lips
I told her to close 'em
let's go for a trip
I wrapped myself
around her tight
keep out the cold
keep out the light
keep out the world
keep out of sight
keep your heaven in your head
and it'll be all right
I said hold on
just hold on
then I wrapped in a shadow
and I felt us burn
deep in the black
it was all a blur
there was only me
holding on to her
she knew I saw
she knew I heard
never looked at me
never said a word
she just holds on
just holds on
I felt her lonely fade away
as her tears finally burned
