This is one of my fave lyrics - and songs:
Silent Rain
Words by Gary Hughes, performed by Ten
There was once a time long ago,
When true love drew man and woman together,
She was all he wanted to know,
And he swore that he would love her forever,
So the light fades the colours of life when it's gone,
Like a lost ship of dreams that failed to sail,
But to him she was more than just another fairy tale,
She became his reality unveiled.
Silent Rain,
You and I have shared the fears the night betrayed,
Through the eyes where love appeared but died in vain,
Torn open, bound together,
Silent Rain,
Even now you hide the tears, you light the way,
Through the darkness that remains,
A brand new day, dawns broken, now, forever,
Silent Rain.
Wait for me, one bright star away,
There we'll spend our timeless moments together,
What we built let no one replace,
There's a place here in my heart, child, forever,
If the light fades the colours of life when it's gone,
Like a lost ship of dreams that failed to sail,
We will prove we were more than just another fairy tale,
What we had was reality unveiled.
Silent Rain.
There was once a time long ago,
When true love drew man and woman together,
You were all I wanted to know,
And I swore that I would love you forever,
So the light fades the colours of life when it's gone,
Like a lost ship of dreams that failed to sail,
But to me you were more than just another fairy tale,
You became my reality unveiled.
Silent Rain.
Note the he & she ==> I and you.
"She was all he wanted to know" - isn't that the way it should be, guys ?
