"Back to a Reason (Part II)"

Time, standing all alone.
I bled for you.
I wanted to,
Each drop my own.

Slowly they depart,
But fall in vain
Like desert rain,
But still they fall on and on and on.

Got to get back to a reason,
Got to get back to a reason I once knew.
And this late in the seasons,
One by one, distractions fade from view.

So, drifting through the dark,
The sympathy
Of night’s mercy
Inside my heart.

Is your life the same?
Do ghosts cry tears?
Do they feel years
As time just goes on and on and on?

Got to get back to a reason,
Got to get back to a reason I once knew.
And this late in the seasons,
One by one, distractions fade from view.

I’m looking for you,
I’m looking for I don’t know what.
I can’t see there any more,
And all my time’s been taken.

Is this what it seems?
The lure of a dream?
And I’m afraid to walk back
Through that door
To find that I’ve awaken.

The night seems to care.
The dream’s in the air.
The snow’s coming down.
It beckons me, dare.

It whispers, it hopes,
It holds and confides,
And offers a bridge
Across these divides.

The parts of my life
I tried to forget,
It’s gathered each piece
And carefully kept.

Somewhere in the dark,
Beyond all the cold,
There is a child
That’s part of my soul,
That’s part of my soul.

Got to get back to a reason,
Got to get back to a reason I once knew.
And this late in the seasons,
One by one, distractions fade from view.

The only reason I have left is you.
