It's five O'clock in the morning the first night has slipped away and out there on the silent street I keep searchin for your face. the curtains on this lone window dribble whispers through the place as I sit here thinkin bout you cause we said good-bye today. Chorus: And forever hides behind a veil of love You get to see it if you're strong enough We didn't find a place there made for us where forever hides behind a veil of love. In two more hours I leave this room and fade into the human race I might see you around sometime but it'll never be the same And I wish I could hold you now one more time to ease the pain but our time ran out and we both knew it was time to make a change. Chorus: Cause forever hides behind a veil of love you get to see it if you're strong enough We didn't find a place there made for us Where forever hides behind a veil of love. Bridge: I know someday I'll be thinking bout the times we had back when and wish we'd found out soon enough where beginnings never end. Rep Chorus. |

I sure enjoyed these lyrics, Eric, and I created my own melody for it that seemed to underscore the mood I felt while reading. And I'm still enjoying Jessie's Day. ![]() Thanks for sharing these great lyrics and music. |

And forever hides behind a veil of love You get to see it if you're strong enough We didn't find a place there made for us where forever hides behind a veil of love. In two more hours I leave this room and fade into the human race I might see you around sometime but it'll never be the same And I wish I could hold you now one more time to ease the pain but our time ran out and we both knew it was time to make a change. ============================ Ebabers...you make me wish I could sing... where are me girlies to sing back up... Sen? Dor? Martie? bring those tambourines... Erics singing the blues and ya know we cant stay away Yer so cool my poet pal ![]() ~~~~~~ Well its 3 am baby... and I'm thinking I made a mistake You've only been gone a few hours and it's already more than I can take I know that we can get it right Please dont give up on this just yet Baby if I lose you now... I'll drown in these tears of regret. Pull back the veil on forever Let the love we once knew light up this place Let's see if we can get it right this time C'mon baby ...wrap me in your rhyme's embrace ![]() You're the hidden cost and the thing that's lost in everything I do. In the sunlight, in the shadows ... No ... I'll never stop looking for you. [This message has been edited by Janet Marie (edited 11-12-2001).] |

Oh my gosh how very sad, Eric. Shoot you are always able to bring tears to my eyes. Why does there have to be goodbyes. **hugs** This is not just a song...it touched my heart. ![]() Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams. |
