And I will leave a light on
As long as there's a hope
A solitary candle
But in the meanwhile
I'm sitting at this table
So utterly empty at her side
I keep you like a secret and I smile
But it's not quite true
And it's not quite you
Pale Imitation
All the finest words could buy
For I
As lost as I am
Imitation of the one I left behind
The one I left behind
As long as there's a hope left
If there's anybody home
There's dead leaves in the driveway
Is there anybody?
Tonight is so familiar
As long as I don't look too close
I find myself a wasted summer rose
And I chase the ghost
That I miss the most
Pale Imitation
All the finest words could buy
For I
As lost as I am
Imitation of the one I left behind
The one I left behind
