And softly like a wild bird in flight I feel you land like a whisper at my feet
And I can't get you off my mind tonight
And it's like an empty tune with a vacant beat

The road keeps on losing it's aim just as I never cease to lose myself
And I know that I won't be the same
Until I store you up high upon some shelf

Softly by the brightest moon at night
I can feel you breathing like a tide in my ear
And I cannot lose this little ray of light
'Cause I know it's just too dark without you here

And softly like a dream amidst the day
You come in and you lose my track
And for as far as I've gotten away it's so quickly brought me right on back

Softly by the brightest moon at night
I can feel you breathing like a tide in my ear
And I cannot lose this little ray of light
'Cause I know it's just too dark without you here

Because now as you speak
I smile on inside with the kind of weak so unable to hide
And this restless night will simply not abide the things that I'm trying to lose
Oh
All the things I let myself use in order to forget you
In order to forget you

Softly by the brightest moon at night
I can feel you breathing like a tide in my ear
And I cannot lose this little ray of light
'Cause I know it's just too dark without you here

Without you here
