Lyrics

When i’m by your side,
I ache to get away.
For there comes a time,
When it’s too much to take.

It is calling out, as light subsides.
It is calling out, the dark of night.

Memories fade,
And words are meaningless.
And I am afraid,
Of the feelings I’ve suppressed.

It is calling out, as light subsides.
It is calling out, the dark of night.
