Counting names now one by one
First is the last to leave
A winter scene so far away if only I believed
Familiar rooms have left no trace
Empty walls where people stare
If only I could change the day
A spirit plays upon the air
Across this space that lies between us
I raise my hands
Against the glass in splinters red and white
And in this space that lies between us
I understand
To break the glass in splinters red and white
The pane in mirrors dance like shadows
Until the end we kiss the rain
The wedding song that plays for no one
Fallen, they will shine again
I can feel the heat and flesh
I can see the closing hand
I've seen you before inside my sleep
And smiled like a drowning man
Across this space that lies between us
I raise my hands
Against the glass in splinters red and white
And in this space that lies between us
I understand
To break the glass in splinters red and white
Counting names now one by one
First is the last to leave
A winter scene so far away if only I believed
Familiar rooms have left no trace
Empty walls where people stare
If only I could change the day
A spirit plays upon the air
Across this space that lies between us
I raise my hands
Against the glass in splinters red and white
And in this space that lies between us
I understand
To break the glass in splinters red and white
