Since You've Been Gone

In the silence of my mind
I can see our love was just a line
To a grasp of air
That's nowhere

And while i wait for love's embrace
My life is but a race
Since you're gone now
All my light is left to waste

I never learned the rule
That love can be so cruel
When it's over and done
Now i can't believe
That what they say is true
How love can be renewed
Because once it's abused
Then it's through

There's no laughter in your smile
And all that's left are shadows in my mind
Of a different place
And your face

And in the quiet of my heart
The sadness lingers on
Now i just have a different point of view
Since you've been gone
