Hold On

(August 18th 2004)
Here in the black of night
There's nothing to hold onto
Tears fall unbidden
And dampen my pillow
Thoughts fill my head
Terrible, cynical thoughts
Nothing seems real anymore
There's nothing to believe in
And it's all impossible
We'll never be together
Regrets and doubts fill me
Dreams will never come true
Your photo by my side
Just stings all the more
As I know what I've found
And what I must be without

Then the wind blows in
And the posters ruffle
I see what I have written
And see the smile upon your face

Now in the black of night
I've found something to hold onto
And tears still fall unbidden
But for joy, not despair
Thoughts fill my head
Of a future, you and I together
Everything seems more real
And I believe in everything again
Now everything is possible
We'll always be together
All that fills me is certainty
That dreams can come true
Your photo by my side
Causes hope and love to swell in me
As I know what I have found
And will live without

Until the day comes
That I will be with you
