Behind a wall

There is a boy

I've tried to reach

For many years

Each time it rains

I see his face

I offer shelter

He walks away

May you have brighter tomorrows

The past you had was shrouded in deceit

May you be eternally beautiful

The way you are

The way you are

To me

I had the chance

To feel his pain

I didn't look

Deep inside

My desperate hope

Won’t bring him back

It only kills

The love I have

May you have brighter tomorrows

The past you had was shrouded in deceit

May you be eternally beautiful

The way you are

The way you are

To me

I walked away

From the water's edge

Feeling numb

From the cold

Now when it rains

I can't see his face

I am weak

And I have failed
