lyrics

V1
gray clouds grow up above
there's no space to see the sun
more darkness will come before
day is done

V2
winds blow cold through the trees
rain falls heavy on light leaves
I know more changes will come
to find me

C
and clouds
with their darkness
and the wind
and the rain
take me to a place
where I can't remain

but thoughts
of you leaving
and my heart
and my tears...
take me to a place
I've not been in years

V3
thoughts of you fill my mind
with no clear space to think
knowing you will be gone makes
my heart sink

V4
my heart floods with feelings
taints my blood with warm tears
we will say goodbyes soon and
that's my fear

C
and clouds
with their darkness
and the wind
and the rain
take me to a place
where I can't remain

but thoughts
of you leaving
and my heart
and my tears...
take me to a place
I've not been in years

B
will time help me chart the course
without any regrets or remorse

V5
in time some days may come
where I will see stars at night
and the sun rise bring the beauty
of daylight

V6
but now I will guard my soul
from the darkness and cold
wait quietly for our truths
to unfold

C
and clouds
with their darkness
and the wind
and the rain
take me to a place
where I can't remain

but thoughts
of you leaving
and my heart
and my tears...
take me to a place
I've not been in years
