No Memories

Rain on the window
Tears in my eyes
Everywhere this feeling
Yes it came as a surprise
No help at all
With that thorn in your side
Not waking up
Where were you Christ?

Lay there, so peacefully
In your forever bed
"Right here," Do you feel me
Stroking your head?
You would always be here
Yes, that's what you said
Now just lay there, so peacefully
In your forever bed

See the rain on my window
Cracked through and through
Needs you to come sew it
And make it brand new
You would always be here
With your needle and thread
Ready to come fix me
Yes, that's what you said

No Memories
They were here, now they're gone
No Memories. Anymore.

Ever so slowly, your image, it fades
And it's getting harder and harder
To make it stay
No, don't go away

Now this day has come
Too early in your life
There's just one last question
But why ask why?
There was no help at all
With that thorn in your side
Oh yes, this day has come
Too early in your life

Yes there's rain on the window
And tears in my eyes
You're everywhere, this feeling
I didn't want this surprise
And there was no help at all
With this thorn in your side
No more waking up
Where were you Christ?

My pen glides this paper
In memory of you
Oh joyous life
And of everything you knew

And all of these people
That you left behind
Will try to save your picture
As it withers from my mind

Ever so slowly, your image, it fades
Leaving me empty and broken
With no memories
No, don't go away

Still rain on the window
And tears in my eyes
Everywhere. This feeling
Yes it came as a surprise
And with no help at all
With that thorn in your side
Not waking up that day
Where were you Christ?
