Lyrics
So I'll just let the days go by
And she and I will never know
No words will pass between us now
No fruit from seeds we've never sown
I'll keep it to myself
I'll tell nobody else
My splintered ship is sinking fast
No hope of footprints in the sand
Love strips my song of sweet disguise
And marks me with it's mortal brand
I'll keep it to myself
I'll tell nobody else
And now the days fall down like rain
Each drop takes one more part of me
I know I'll never be the same
The shadows stake their claim on me
I'll keep it to myself
I'll tell nobody else
