You've left me with such a silent world,
Where evenings are calm, but I'm restless
And my breath has become as thin as the wind.
Not even the mighty sky could fill the space you left behind
No, nothing takes your place
Your emptiness too great to fill.
I have been holding my breath,
For too many nights in a row,
And somewhere on coastlines unknown to me
With reds and blues and greens.
Yea you're painting daffodils by the sea,
Today in a breeze I sensed your perfume
But you were nowhere near.
And even in my dreams I shake from the fear
Of truth being swept away
By the rhythm of the waves I whisper in your ears.
I have been holding my breath,
For too many nights in a row,
And somewhere on coastlines unknown to me
With reds and blues and greens.
Yea you're painting daffodils by the sea,
If I could just be with you again.
I have been holding my breath,
For too many nights in a row,
And somewhere on coastlines unknown to me
With reds and blues and greens.
Yea you're painting daffodils growing by the sea,
Last night I dreamt you were with me,
