I was the one who had it all
I was the master of my fate I never needed anybody in my life
I learned the truth too late I'll never shake away the pain
I close my eyes but she's still there I
let her steal into my melancholy heart
more than I can bear
Now I know she'll never leave me even as she runs away
She will still torment me,
call me,
hurt me,
move me,
come what may
Wasting in my lonely tower,
waiting by an open door
I'll fool myself, she'll walk right in
and be with me forevermore
I rage against the trials of love I curse the fading of the light
Though she's already flown so far
beyond my reach she's never out of sight
Now I know she'll never leave
me even as she fades
from view
She will still inspire me, be a part
of everything I do
Wasting in my lonely tower,
waiting by an open door
I'll fool myself,
she'll walk right in and as the long,
long nights begin
I'll think of all that might have been waiting here forevermore
