Verse 1
The Morning Sun Begins To Rise And Fade
I Sit Alone Within The Quiet Shade
The Ticking Clock Hangs Lonely On The Wall
There Is No Voice, There Is No One To Call
I Pour A Single Cup Of Tea For One
And Watch Another Day That's Just Begun
My Shadow Is The Only Friend I See
In This Big House That Holds The Ghost Of Me
Chorus
Oh, The Silence Is A Heavy Pouring Rain
A Lingering Soft And Aching Pain
The Memories Of Youth Are Far Away
As Twilight Turns The Golden Skies To Grey
Holding On To Nights That Used To Glow
In This Quiet World That Moves So Slow
Verse 2
The Evening Wind Is Blowing Through The Door
I Walk Across The Cold And Empty Floor
I Turn The Pages Of An Old Book Now
And Wipe The Faded Memories From My Brow
The Dinner Table Only Has One Chair
I Whisper To The Cold And Empty Air
It's Hard To Do It All Without A Hand
In This Lonely, Quiet, Fading Land
Chorus
Oh, The Silence Is A Heavy Pouring Rain
A Lingering Soft And Aching Pain
The Memories Of Youth Are Far Away
As Twilight Turns The Golden Skies To Grey
Holding On To Nights That Used To Glow
In This Quiet World That Moves So Slow
Bridge
Time Moves On, But I Am Standing Still
Against The Cold, Against The Winter Chill
I Miss The Laughter, Miss The Warm Embrace
Now All I See
Is Just[ An Empty Space
Instrumental
Chorus
Oh, The Silence Is A Heavy Pouring Rain
A Lingering Soft And Aching Pain
The Memories Of Youth Are Far Away
As Twilight Turns The Golden Skies To Grey
Just Me And The Night
Holding On To The Fading Light
