softly he dreams
of a life so sweet...
as he seems
to drop to his ill-faded knees
gently he closes his eyes
as the memories seem to fade
like his tears caught in her lies
like his heart once again betrayed

seemed to streak
in a steady line
down his pale cheek
and die upon lips so soft and divine
of a life so sweet...

gently he closes his eyes
as the memories seem to fade
like his tears caught in her lies
like his heart once again betrayed
