Restless Ghosts

I am without you for another day

The rain is cold and I tremble

As I envy its’ touch on you

Do you hear me whisper

On the breeze tonight?

My heart sings your name

But the melody is sad

For you are the only one I see

We are like two flames

Burning in the night

As fragile as a dream

Which rising winds

Bear far away

You are the ache in my heart

A voice inside of me

And the night

Empty of your presence

Is ever full

Of restless ghosts
