For You Only

Ready to embrace the day as we both break

When the light stole in

it found me wide awake

Wasted from a sleepless night,

I reach to touch your hair

Withdraw an empty hand

for you're no longer there

In between the silence,

living is an empty space

Save the ticking of a clock

whose hands are sweeping past its face

And I just don't want to be lonely

night and day

But as I look around me,

I just feel that way

For you only

I turn my hand to something that would clear my head

But I could not forget

the parting words we shared

I opened up my mind to all the pictures I could trace

But I could not recall the contours of your face

And, oh, you slipped away before I had the chance to say

If I did something wrong,

please tell me I'll accept the blame

And I just don't want to be lonely

night and day

But as I look around me,

I just feel that way

For you only

And I just don't want to be lonely

night and day

But as I look around me,

I just feel that way

For you only

for you're no longer there

for you're no longer there

In between the silence,

living is an empty space

Save the ticking of a clock

whose hands are sweeping past its face

And I just don't want to be lonely

night and day

But as I look around me,

I just feel that way

And I just don't want to be lonely

night and day

But as I look around me,

I just feel that way

For you only
