Hemi's Lament

It's late at night, the streets are wet

I'm hanging for the morn'

And in my heart I feel regret

For a lover I once adored

I was young but I was bright

I was warm inside

And I saw you standing in the rain

And I thought I saw you crying

Oh, I thought I saw you crying

But the light was in your eyes

Our love was strong but winter came

And blew out every flame

And all at once the fire went out

And cannot ignite again

So bury me in Tanner Street

In the yard where I grew

I'll be quiet, I'll be sweet

With memories of you

Oh, I thought I saw you crying

But the light was in your eyes

Take me far and take me high

Take me to the edge

So I know that I'm alive

And so I won't forget

Oh, I thought I saw you crying

Yes, I thought I saw you crying

Oh, I thought I saw you crying

But the light was in your eyes
