You're gone as suddenly as you came to me

Like nightfall followed dawn without a day between

You're gone and suddenly I can't see

I'm in the shadow of you

I'm in the shadow of you



I can see you in my minds rose-tinted eye..

Somewhere you're drifting by

Your heels rolling sparks on the lucky street



While here am I left behind

Stunned and blind

But I can see you from here

I can see you so clear



You are the light

you are the light

You have the day

I have the night

But we have the early hours together



you're gone, and heaven cries

A thunderstorm breaks from the northern sky

chasing you back to the daily grind



You're gone and where am I?

A haunted life

The ghost of your laughter

The half empty glass

The half empty glass



And I wait

till midnight tolls

Two souls almost touching in the dark

I'll be allright



You are the light

You are the light

You have the day I have the night

But we have the early hours

We have the early hours

We have the early hours together
