Flickering images
On the mirror, on the wall

Lips moving silently,
I can't hear your voice call

As I reach out to you,
Tears flowing endlessly,

You drift away from my reach,
Getting further away from me

Still, you're all I see when
I blink, wherever I gaze

Flickering images of you
I am haunted by your face

As your eyes penetrate me,
Going deep, deep within

Angry and accusing,
Not forgiving my sin

My tears wet the floor,
As I cry for you, yearn for you

A hopeless plea arises from me;
I realise there's nothing I can do

My face a salty island amongst thousands of tiny tears,

I cry and cry again and again,
Realising my worst fears

That you are gone, forever
From my reach, my embrace,

From this world, from me
As I discover this in a daze,

I see your flickering images,
I see you here, I see you there

I see you whenever I close my eyes;
I see you everytime, I see you everywhere...

I see you whenever I close my eyes;I see you everytime, I see you everywhere
