[Verse 1]
She walks alone on the brick lane
The breeze is blowing
A year had changed her forever
Just like her grey home
He used to live so close here
We'd look for places I can't remember
The world was safe when she knew him
She tried to hold him, hold on forever

[Chorus]
For all that never happens and all that never will be
A candle burning for the love we seldom keep

[Verse 2]
The earth was raw in her fingers
She overturned it
Considered planting some flowers
They wouldn't last long
No one to tend them
It's funny how these things go
You were the answer to all the questions
The memories made her weary
She shuddered slowly
She didn't want to
She didn't want to
[Chorus]
For all that never happens and all that never will be
A candle burning for the love we seldom keep

[Bridge]
As a distant summer he began to whisper
He threw a smile her way
She looked into the glass
Liquid surface showing that they were melding
Together present past

[Bridge]
So where can I go from here?
The color fading
He didn't answer
She felt him slip from her vision
She tried to hold him, hold on forever
Hold on forever

[Chorus]
For all that never happens and all that never will be
A fire burning for the love we seldom keep
For all that never happens and all that never will be
So close forever in a silent frozen sleep

[Humming and Vocalizing]
