Hideaway

If I could hide my soul away
If I had meaning for someone
A dim csndle to light my way

Why can't anyone hear me
Why can't anyone see me
Am I upon the doorstep of fate

As the days go by time slips through my hands
A grain of sand a forgotten song
A deep breath and the feeling is gone

Another lonely sleepless night
My empty words by candle light
The sound of rain a familiar friend to me

I've got the sound of a clock on the wall
A reminder that my time
Is a limited stay upon this scene

Three a.m. I'm alive as the city sleeps
Pouring rain outside and I don't mind
If I had somebody to share my wine
