[Intro: Bass guitar] Verse 1: In the gray blocks, windows stare at the street, Like lovers they wait, but their hearts never meet. And people inside, like stars lost in space, Fade out in the cold, the dark’s empty embrace. I see you there through the narrow frame, As if I could reach and whisper your name. You sit by the window, your thoughts drift away, What’s on your mind? What would make you stay? Chorus: Come on, come on, come on, come on, In the silence I wait. Don’t be sad, come on, come on, I’m the one at the gate. Come on, come on, come on, come on, Though the night hides the glow, We’ll light a fire from [Instruments pause, vocals in focus] What was lost long ago. [Instrumental break] Verse 2: You trace on the glass the moments you’ve known, While I write a tune of secrets untold. Maybe we’re caught in a dream that forgot To bring us the love that we once might have sought. We’re close like the buildings that sleep in the dark, But shadows between us keep pulling apart. You draw on the paper, I scribble in rhyme, Naive little verses, hoping for a sign. Chorus: Come on, come on, come on, come on, In the silence I wait. Don’t be sad, come on, come on, I’m the one at the gate. Come on, come on, come on, come on, Though the night hides the glow, We’ll light a fire from What was lost long ago. Verse 3: You suddenly rise, then glance at the sky, Your gaze shatters through the silence like a cry. At the edge, like a bird that’s waiting to soar, But afraid of the dream, not ready for more. [Only guitar remains] You step through the window, out into the night [A brief pause] The wind carries away your final sigh. I wanted to help, to hold you so tight, If only the end was just a dream gone by. [Pause, soft breath] Chorus: Come on, come on, come on, come on, In the silence I wait. Don’t be sad, come on, come on, I’m the one at the gate. Come on, come on, come on, come on, Though the night hides the glow, We’ll light a fire from What was lost long ago. Come on, come on, come on, come on, In the silence I wait. Don’t be sad, come on, come on, I’m the one at the gate. Come on, come on, come on, come on, Though the night hides the glow, We’ll light a fire from What was lost long ago. [Final instrumental break]
