You were mine when I was young 
Why does it take so long? 
When you were here, it was warm 
Now it's just a bitter storm 

Now I'm older, turning white 
Watching days turn into nights 
Now I'm older and I'm grave 
Tell me, what's been left to save? 
--- 
Pardon my reflection 
In the mirror, at your feet 
Before you go, please tell me 
"Was it all inside of me?" 
------ 
"I'll leave here in the morning"

You were mine when I was young 
Why does it take so long? 
Now I'm older and I'm grave 
Tell me, "what's been left to save?" 
--- 
I held you in the morning 
In the doorway of the sea 
"Pardon my reflection 
It was all inside of me." 
- 
We slowly fall from grace 
We slowly fade away..
