As I gaze out my window into the dark of the night
Thinking of you if all was just right
Wanting to be with you and wanting you near
But the feelings of love have turned into fear
For into the darkness I feel you there
Standing alone and wondering where
A man full of change, his body is worn
By the memories of his ghosts as they were tattered and torn
Lurking into the darkness not a mind of his own
Watching and waiting as I sit here alone
Watching and waiting till they all go away
Wanting you back and wanting you to stay
But your life has been tormented by things from your past
That keep coming back, longer it stays, longer it lasts
I cannot hold on for each time it gets worse
So please understand for all that it's worth
I can't live with the thought of knowing it's wrong
But to be by your side I just can't go on
Knowing that someday I may not be here
So my memories of love have grown into fear
