Lyrics: Nicholas Slater/Andrew Lloyd-Webber
Music: Andrew Lloyd-Webber/SLATER
The day starts
The day ends
Time crawls by
Night steals in pacing the floor
The moments creep
Yet I can't bear to sleep
Till I hear you sing
And weeks pass
And months pass
Seasons fly
Still you don't walk through the door
And in a haze I count the silent days
Till I hear you sing once more
And sometimes at night time
I dream that you are there
But wake holding nothing but the empty air
And years come
And years go
Time runs dry
Still I ache down to the core
My broken soul can't be alive and whole
Till I hear you sing once more
And music
your music
It teases at my ear
I turn and it fades away
And you're not here
Let hopes pass
Let dreams pass
Let them die
Without you what are they for
I always feel no more than halfway real
Till I hear you sing once more
