When the Day Fades
And in the night I find her smile
Dancing through the shadows
And into my head as I dream
The going isn't always good
But it's getting better with every day
Slowly I'm forgetting about her now
And while I'm awake she goes away
But when the sun falls down
And I'm lying awake in bed
For awhile she's mine again
She slips into my head
Yesterday I found myself thinking
As I wandered through the city
I'll be okay if she'll only let go
But sometimes I wonder.. will she?
And sometime in August we disappeared
Years of smiles that somehow died
For the first time in so very long
I slept alone; I cried
It's getting easier these days
To walk with my head held high
People don't give me those crazy looks
And they never ask me why..
But when the day fades out once more
And I'm tossing in my bed
My dreaming brings her back again
She lives inside my head
And in the night I find her smile
Dancing through the shadows
And into my head as I dream
