you thought i didn’t hear you but i did
you thought that i was sleeping
while i hid my eyes and held my breath
your vigil was my rest
as i listened in the dark to every whisper
you used to say my name
like a prayer within a dream
almost silently
you spoke your love for me
so sweetly in my ear
when you were here
you though i might leave you and i did
‘cause you never made your case
now we’re circling the space that’s left between
and all this love i’ve been saving up forever
just won’t go away
o my tidal wave
i know you gave your best for me
now the rest will be
just a shadow of the years
when you were here
o my tidal wave...
you thought i didn’t hear you
but i did
