--Ashes--

From the album 'Le Bleu'

I'm holding you so close
As if you might slip away
Between the night and morning light
Our peace decays
And not a word will we speak
For silence knows what to say
I press my hand into yours
For I know I cannot stay

With a single thought and skin so close
This is a fire in the night
With empty hearts and burning souls
These are the ashes of the day

The colours change
The leaves fall away
And naked are the arms of the trees
I think of you, your simple grace
And spring rushes back to me

With a single thought and skin so close
This is a fire in the night
With empty hearts and burning souls
These are the ashes of the day
