Hallucinations - Tim Buckley

I saw you walking

Only yesterday

When I ran to catch you

You disappeared

And the street was gray

The candle died

Now you are gone

For the flame was too bright

Now you are gone

I heard you laughing

With your laugh of gold

When I called out to you

Silence returned

And the air was cold

The castle fell

Now you are gone

And no more rings the bell

Now you are gone

I found a letter

On the day it rained

When I tore it open

There in my hands

Only ash remained

The castle fell

Now you are gone

And no more rings the bell

Now you are gone

I felt you breathing

As I fell asleep

When I reached out to touch you

No one was there

And the night was deep

The candle died

Now you are gone

For the flame was too bright

Now you are gone

I saw you walking

Only yesterday

When I ran to catch you

You disappeared

And the street was gray

The castle fell

Now you are gone

No more rings the bell

Now you are gone
