Beyond The Never
Empty pages turning in an old attic room
But I still remember what you told me that day
I never forgot them, and I still hold them to be true
And maybe someday, I'll meet you again, and hear you say:
The words I grew to live with, the words I grew to love
Are the words you whispered to me
Now, as I remember them, I know so much has changed since then
Except for the words I'll keep with me until the end:
"When we find love, we'll know what it's like
To finally walk in heaven's light
Our passion will be diamonds, and our kisses like treasure
We'll touch eternity, and we'll be forever
Lovers beyond the never."
The stories they write and the songs they sing
Of love that lasts for an eternity
But what do they know of attraction, affection, devotion, suffering
And two hearts that beat together
They'll never see the universe in your eyes
Or the music of your voice
They'll never know what it's like
To hear those words you whispered to me
(Heaven and hell, the only choice)
That broke my heart as you kissed me goodbye:
When you've cried so many tears you can't cry no more
It hurts deep inside, but the pain just won't go
What kept me sane were the words you whispered to me
A vanished summer ago
And as I hear them again, I wonder when they'll come true
Another summer, perhaps, or a winter night dressed in blue
When the stars show me a vision of our two hearts
And the wind will bring me the words I once heard:
The dust slowly settles on an age-old heart
But the memories still shine brightly
Cause when I think of that summer night
It's the only thing that keeps me alive
I'll see you again, I know by the stars
That what we had can never die
So as I remember that, someday, you'll come back to me
I'll whisper what you once whispered to me:
Sometimes when I'm all alone and the winds are my only company
I look at the stars, and I see your eyes in them
I'm used to those moments, when darkness is my only friend
And all I have of you is a memory
Of a distant summer night
And the two of us in the pouring rain.
If I could take time back, I wonder what I would change
Or if I would keep everything the same
Because for you, I'd put myself thru every kind of pain
To hear your voice whisper my name
And to hear those words that I've always wanted you to say:
"When we find love, we'll know what it's like
To finally walk in heaven's light
Our passion will be diamonds, and our kisses like treasure
We'll touch eternity, and we'll be forever
Lovers beyond the never.
I know I see you some day
And it'll be heaven
As we run thru the Elysian fields
When we'll hold infinity in our hands.
Than you or I, there'll be nothing better
For we'll always be lovers beyond the never."
Now, as the world stops turning
I begin to think that maybe you won't come
That whenever I see you at the corner of my eye
It's just a shadow of my mind undone
I'm lying on the ground, I'm too weak to move
And I'm wondering if you'll come to rescue me
Because I still need you, I need you to see me thru
I've loved you forver, eternity, infinity
But you are not here
My Elysian fields have turned into Hades
My heaven has become hell
Because you're not coming, are you?
You've left me here, to bleed, to die, to rot, to decay...
And now, as I fade away, I still call your name
My heart explodes, the searing pain
Rends me limb from limb, but I still call
As my world crashes down on me, I feel no shame
In thinking of you, while I've lost all in my final game
Because nothing ever changes, and yet nothing is the same
And now, as I die, allow me this, if you will
To put myself thru the final disgrace
To cast my soul to hell, and for you, to reserve a place
To spit the words you once told me, bitch -
"When we find love, we'll know what it's like
To finally walk in heaven's light
Our passion will be diamonds, and our kisses like treasure
We'll touch eternity, and we'll be forever
Lovers beyond the never.
I know I see you some day
And it'll be heaven
As we run thru the Elysian fields
When we'll hold infinity in our hands
Than you or I, there'll be nothing better
For we'll always be, lovers beyond the never."
Haha.
