Without You

Is it just that night
That I sat on the bench
Dispersed stars offering scant comfort
The lamp above
Warm light sweeping down on me
Casting a shadow
My shadow
Or was it mine

A shadow it was
Dark and blank
Without features
Only coldness and silence
There was only a shadow
How many times has it been like that

A day on the phone
Listening to the same old tone
Monotonous tone it goes
Over and over again
Waiting for the life
But there is only coldness blowing into my ears
Only silence talking to me
There is only a shadow
How many times has it been like that

A day on the streets
Within the rush of people
Admist them
Coldness caressing my hands
And it never leaves
Only coldness
Within the rush of people
I could only hear silence
Only silence
There is only a shadow
How many times has it been like that

Am I missing someone
I want to fill the shadow
With colours
With features
With life
But it isn’t possible without you

How many years have I been waiting
For you to take the bench
For you to pick up the phone
For me to hold your hands
I want to smile to you
I want to bring happiness to you
But there is only a shadow now
And only coldness and silence

Am I missing someone
I want to fill the shadow
With colours
With features
With life
But it isn’t possible without you

Will it take days
Or will it take weeks
Or will it take months
Or will it take years
Before I meet you

I haven’t met you
But I will always be waiting for you
