[Verse 1]
I would be lost, drifting along
Floating up high time after time
And there you'd be shining brightly
Your smiling face to guide my way

[Verse 2]
Bloody and bruised, brought to my knees
When beaten down, when broken up
You would appear, reach out to me
Heal every wound and make me whole

[Pre-Chorus]
Was it all a dream, will I ever know?
Foolish and blind to everything
Had I realized, had I thought it through?
Would you be here in my embrace?

[Chorus]
Shine bright once more
Guide me to you
Smile bright once more
This time I will never let you go

[Instrumental Break]
[Bridge]
With your every smile hiding something more
Dark mysteries lurking beneath
But I was consumed with this emptiness
This selfishness, this void to fill

[Chorus]
Hear me once more
Show me your smile
This time for sure
I'll see the truth hidden inside your tears
But I, I know
That you're long gone
But I, I will
Go on howling and hollow

[Outro]
To never know
