To Ashes

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Why, I've found perfection now it slips through my grasp Child, you touch me now as life flows through my hands [Chorus] Gray skies have been broken (I'll never see the warmth of your eyes) Cold eyes softly spoken (Your face forever etched in my mind) [Verse 2] Love, I'll get through this if you stand at my side Alone, this fear across me it shall never subside [Chorus] Gray skies have been broken (I'll never see the warmth of your eyes) Cold eyes softly spoken (Your face forever etched in my mind) [Verse 3] You speak to me in rhythm and it waves across the water You speak to me in ways that I don't understand Deep inside I hear every word every way And after all is lost there is nothing left inside of me [Interlude] I long for your touch How I need to breathe your breath again Deep inside me I know I'm alone How I cherish your persuasive warmth This is not what I want life to be (There is no way I can stop this now) And there's nothing left inside of me I long for your touch How I need to breathe your breath again Deep inside me I know I'm alone How I cherish your persuasive warmth This is not what I want life to be (There is no way I can stop this now) And there's nothing left inside of me [Instrumental Break] [Verse 1] Why, I've found perfection now it slips through my grasp Child, you touch me now as life flows through my hands [Chorus] Gray skies have been broken (I'll never see the warmth of your eyes) Cold eyes softly spoken (Your face forever etched in my mind) [Verse 2] Love, I'll get through this if you stand at my side Alone, this fear across me it shall never subside [Chorus] Gray skies have been broken (I'll never see the warmth of your eyes) Cold eyes softly spoken (Your face forever etched in my mind) Endlessly unfallen words I cannot replace [Post-Chorus] Don't cry my love, I believe that I won't fail you again But I long to be your servant once more By the morning light I'll have breathed my last I implore you, don't forget my love [Guitar Solo] [Outro] Don't cry my love, I believe that I won't fail you again But I long to be your servant once more By the morning light I'll have breathed my last I implore you, don't forget
