The web that tethered us across the years
had finally ripped apart
So you slipped away and left behind
What still remained of our severed binds
The sound of your laughter grew faint and hush
Then vanished with the fallen leaves
Soon autumn passed, and as it left
It carried off what made me feel complete
Snow is falling from a sunless sky
To enchant the midnight air
I can hear your voice call in muted tones
Yet no-one else is there
Your illusion cuts through winter fog
Then fades out from my sight
Now I leave your memory far from me
Buried in the ice
Your image frozen to the past
Reminds me of how it used to be
Your visage I can see at last
Only smiles to haunt me
This eerie silence leads me to believe
Your absence can't be rectified
There's no chance to fill your vacancy
So I have to cast this dream aside
Snow is falling from a sunless sky
To enchant the midnight air
I can hear your voice call in muted tones
Yet no-one else is there
Your illusion cuts through winter fog
Then fades out from my sight
Now I leave your memory far from me
Buried in the ice
