Desiree de Savatage

Desiree
listen to your heart
have the dreams all been scattered
are all the words just parts
'cause in these ruins alone
i've been watching you
a ghost among these stones
desiree i've got to tell you

what good's a tear without a face
to soften its downward fall from grace
and across my heart
desiree i wish you'd see
scars are the wounds that we all show
time only heals if you let go
if you're letting go
desiree i wish you'd think

if you only take chances
when every angle's safe
have partnerless dances
in castles where you wait

but i see far away
a distance in your eyes
as you go on alone
piling up your alibis

what good's a tear without a face
to soften its downward fall from grace
and across my heart
desiree i wish you'd see
scars are the wounds that we must show
time only heals if you let go
if you're letting go
desiree i wish you'd think

lost in a movie script
with no words left to say
you leave on that plane alone
and there inside a midnight fog
i turn and walk away

what good's a tear that fall from grace
what good's a life that leaves no trace
when its time is done
desiree i wish you'd see

who needs a heart that never bleeds
never retreats and never needs
if it's all alone
desiree i wish you'd think
...me
