[Intro]


    
         
            
  

[Verse 1]
             
I was the one 

          
who had it all
             
I was the mast

     
er of my fate
             
I never needed

          
 anybody in my

 
 life
             
I learned the 

           
truth too late
             
I’ll never sha

           
ke away the pa

in
             
I close my eye

          
s but she’s st

    
ill there
          
I let her stea

             
l into my mela

       
ncholy heart
             
It’s more than

        
 I can bear

[Chorus 1]
          
Now I know she

          
’ll never leav

e me
             
Even as she ru

    
ns away
             
She will still

 
 torment me
      
Calm me, hurt 

me
          
Move me, come 

     
what may
          
Wasting in my 

       
lonely tower
            
Waiting by an 

#     
open door
           
I’ll fool myse

              
lf, she’ll wal

        
k right in
          
And be with me

        
 forevermore

[Verse 2]
             
I rage against

             
 the trials of

 
 love
             
I curse the fa

         
ding of the li

ght
             
Though she’s a

            
lready flown s

             
o far beyond m

  
y reach
           
She’s never ou

       
t of sight

[Chorus 2]
          
Now I know she

          
’ll never leav

e me
             
Even as she fa

         
des from view
             
She will still

 
 inspire me
        
Be a part of e

/         
verything I do
          
Wasting in my 

       
lonely tower
             
Waiting by an 

      
open door
           
I’ll fool myse

             
lf, she’ll wal

        
k right in
            
And as the lon

              
g, long nights

          
 begin
             
I’ll think of 

            
all that might

           
 have been
           
Waiting here f

     
orevermore
