Here I am Reaching and fading to grey In a picture you can't put away There you are Frozen looking at me Here I am vanishing The needle plays the record The morfine kills the pain The thought of you so gentle As the world fades away A thousand times I needed you A thousand times I've cried The roses you planted They've all died If tears could build a stairway And heartaches make a lane I walk this path to you And bring you back again Now here I am A shadow of a memory Your words are cutting into me Every piece of my life Is up on the silver screen Here I am vanishing A thousand times I've needed you A thousand times I've cried The roses you planted Have withered and died If tears could build a stairway And heartaches make the lane I walk this path to you And bring you back again The needle plays the record The morfine kills the pain The thought of you is gentle As the world fades away A thousand times I've needed you A thousand times I've cried The roses you planted Have withered and died If tears could build a stairway And heartaches make a lane I walk this path to you And bring you back again The needle plays the record The morfine kills the pain The thought of you is gentle As the world fades away
