Without You

On the run in dense obscurity
You're the cause that shrouds
Every day dreaming dreams of
A woman in those scattered clouds

She said she was a loser
At the same old, old game
An angel with a brightening edge
Burning in search of fame

All I gained was a new gun
To satisfy her heartache
Just as the bullets began to fly
I had to clear the blue blue sky

Then she left my open door
Cold wind in her hair
And the dark night shrouds
No love, no tears, no ugly sounds

And tonight i'll make me one mistake
And the moon- it doesn't feel all right
Cold inside with a struggling thirst
Her young pride watchfully in sight

(chorus)
Then she left my open door
Cold wind in her hair
And the dark night shrouds
No love, no tears, no ugly sounds

She got me to hide tonight
'Cause I wanted to know
I couldn’t sleep with old rules
When the bullets began to fly

(chorus)
Then she left my open door
Cold wind in her hair
And the dark night shrouds
No love, no tears, no ugly sounds

And with no regrets I squeezed
the trigger and looked within
My memory of a lost love
Running the breeze in that sky

Living on my own I don't care
This one time I will carry on
With an image of love, of her
By the door... with a cold wind in her hair

(chorus)
Then she left my open door
Cold wind in her hair
And the dark night shrouds
No love, no tears, no ugly sounds

(chorus)
Then she left my open door
Cold wind in her hair
And the dark night shrouds
No love, no tears, no ugly sounds


...Without you...
...Without you...
