Autumn Rains

Meireles Botelho

The night still holds your shadow near
A fading whisper in my ear
Your touch remains, but you are gone
And every heartbeat feels undone

You were the fire in my veins
A poison sweet as autumn rains

In ash and kiss, we fade away
Through shattered dreams we chose to stay
I'd bleed again to hear your call
And rise where all our lies fell

The candle dies, yet smoke will cling
Like memories that winter brings
Your lips were dreams I couldn't wake
Now silence answers to me ache

You were the fire in my veins
A poison sweet as autumn rains

In ash and kiss, we fade away
Through shattered dreams we chose to stay
I'd bleed again to hear your call
And rise where all our lies fell

Let night devour all I am
And write my end upon your veil
I'll burn until the dark forgives
The fall of our shadow sin
