[Verse 1] I let time pass the way a sad tune fades at the edge of a quiet room A mournful salute to what once shone raising my hands to what’s already gone [Chorus] Don’t look back, I know (still I turn my head) Hands up in the air, surrender to whatever comes next If the gods built this ache they must know why yet I’m standing here, love with nothing but a faintest sigh [Verse 2] At the door between what was and what’s due I feel some trace still holding of you Even where forever splits into two some hidden pattern still answers to you [Chorus] Don’t look back, I know (still I turn my head) Hands up in the air, surrender to whatever comes next If the gods built this ache they must know why yet I’m standing here, love with nothing but a faintest sigh [Bridge] This is my yearning mine alone soft on my tongue sharp in the bone A secret that lingers just under skin waiting, still waiting for someone to let it in [Chorus] Don’t look back, I know (still I turn my head) Hands up in the air, surrender to whatever comes next If the gods built this ache they must know why I am tracing what remains of us inside this faintest sigh
