One Last Night - Winter's Verge

Here I stand with the wind on my face

And it seems I can hear your voice

Far from the depths of this cruel

Desert world

That takes, and gives you no choice

I remember that cold winter mourn

You left and did not say goodbye

We argued so much the previous night

Although I knew that you always

Were right

I should have listened to the raven’s cry

I would have wiped your tears aside

I could have drowned my ego and tired

To hold you one last time

One last night

I sat on the porch with your words in

My mind

And I thought of the pain in your eyes

I knew there and then that I had to find

A way

To say I’m sorry and swallow my pride

The sound of the phone seized

My thoughts

As a feeling of joy filled my heart

But the voice a the end of the line

Said the road had taken your life

I should have listened to the raven’s cry

I would have wiped your tears aside

I could have drowned my ego and tired

To hold you one last time

One last night

So here I am, standing on your grave

My heart is shattered

With empty tears raining down my face

That I can’t see from the disgrace

I wish that I could turn back time and

Change all that has happened

So we could have just one more night

Before our days would darken

I should have listened to the raven’s cry

I would have wiped your tears aside

I could have drowned my ego and tired

To hold you one last time

One last night
