I saw you stepping down from the train

into the busy city streets

I swear I heard you whisper my name

made me miss another heartbeat

I'm sure I saw your face

alive in every passing stranger

felt your breath

like a sweet caress

till there was nothing left

and I was blowing kisses in the wind

every time I hear your voice

you let me know the love survived

holding on for another day

nobody can take your place

an angel in a state of grace

shadows fall when you close your eyes

I hear you walking down to the church

past the house we used to love

I tried to hide you picture

out of reach

but you're always high above me

standing face to face

a beautiful familiar stranger

I'm on my knees

like a summer breeze

under the wishing tree

you give me the strength to carry on

every time I hear your voice

you let me know the love survived

holding on for another day

nobody can take your place

an angel in a state of grace

shadows fall when you close your eyes

sometimes in the dead of night

you come for me

I reach out my hand to you

ready to give up this fight

you give me the strength to carry on~

(every time)

every time I hear your voice

you let me know the love survived

holding on for another day

nobody can take your place

an angel in a state of grace

shadows fall when you close your eyes

(when you close your eyes~)

(holding on for another day~)

(shadows fall when you close your eyes)
