So many years that we were one So many things we've done The memories alive But most of me has died As I struggle with events I'm offered words of strength They do not comprehend The passion we possessed People tell me what to do Tell me how I should get through But they haven't got a clue No one else comes close to you I see your eyes before they closed They looked right inside my soul And they asked me not to grieve I tried but still I bleed I wake up, I break up Try hard to shake off The desolation as it grows As nothing else comes close And as I stand here by the grave And the wind calls out your name I know that time could never heal The emptiness I feel People try to give me hope Tell me how I should let go But they'll never really know 'Cause there's nothing else comes close People tell me what to do Tell me how I should get through But they haven't got a clue No one else comes close to you
That final "no one else comes close to you" still gives me chills
21 years after release and I still weep everytime I listen to this song. So beautiful and painful.
Absolutely incredible
tremendo!
So many years that we were one
So many things we've done
The memories alive
But most of me has died
As I struggle with events
I'm offered words of strength
They do not comprehend
The passion we possessed
People tell me what to do
Tell me how I should get through
But they haven't got a clue
No one else comes close to you
I see your eyes before they closed
They looked right inside my soul
And they asked me not to grieve
I tried but still I bleed
I wake up, I break up
Try hard to shake off
The desolation as it grows
As nothing else comes close
And as I stand here by the grave
And the wind calls out your name
I know that time could never heal
The emptiness I feel
People try to give me hope
Tell me how I should let go
But they'll never really know
'Cause there's nothing else comes close
People tell me what to do
Tell me how I should get through
But they haven't got a clue
No one else comes close to you
