Gone Are the Days

I found a ring inside a box of buried dreams

Where hope sleeps tight among the secrets and the schemes

And underneath the box in black and white and red

I found a hidden letter, this is what it said

" I'll never rest until I find the broken heart I left behind "

Gone are the days through the haze

Only sorrow lives on

No skies of blues

Only hues of a past ever gone

I saved the letter and the faded memory

And searched the world for the answers left for me

The years roll by and lines adorn my hands and face

A trail of tears that even time cannot erase

I'll never rest until I find the broken heart he left behind

Gone are the days through the haze

Only sorrow lives on

No skies of blues

Only hues of a past ever gone

My journey ends atop a mountain high

Two crosses stand alone and reach toward the sky

And on the ground a broken box of buried dreams

The letter turns to dust and blows into the trees

She finally rests in dreams sublime

Her one true love now by her side

Gone are the days through the haze

Only sorrow lives on

No skies of blues

Only hues of a past ever gone

Gone are the days ...

" It's nearly dawn as I write this, a time of day that will forever bring me sorrow.

I will hold on to yesterday if you will hold onto tomorrow

Our love will be your beacon of light to guide you through your darkest night

And we will meet again somehow, someway when sunlight warms the coldest day

And I'll never rest until I find the broken heart I left behind "
