Testo Absent

YOU'VE SEVERED ALL OF YOUR TIES
AND ABSENT FOR GOODBYES
WE ARE SHADOWS IN YOUR WAKE
REMAINING IS THE TALE
OF THE OCEAN NIGHTINGALE
AND THE PROMISES YOU'D BREAK

AND SUMMER WON'T BE THE SAME
AND FOR THIS YOU ARE TO BLAME
AND SUMMER WON'T BE THE SAME
AND NEVER WILL BE AGAIN

A PENNY FOR YOUR THOUGHTS
FOR A THOUSAND RAINY DAYS
YOUR REASONS SO UNCLEAR
HOW A SPLASH IN TIME CAN CHANGE
BUT THE WAVES REMAIN THE SAME
EVERY MOMENT, EVERY YEAR

AND SUMMER WON'T BE THE SAME
AND FOR THIS YOU ARE TO BLAME
AND SUMMER WON'T BE THE SAME
AND NEVER WILL BE AGAIN

IN THIS YESTERDAY SKY
A SECOND THOUGHT THAT I ONCE HAD
I SAW YOU SMILING THERE
IN THIS YESTERDAY FOG
YOU LEFT THE WORLD THAT SEEMED MUCH BETTER
ALL OF THE DAYS BEFORE YOU LEFT
BEFORE YOU LEFT

THIS PLACE IS COLD AND CHANGED
BUT YOU ARE DESTINED TO SUSTAIN
YOU WILL ALWAYS DEFINE HERE
I CAN'T EVEN SAY YOUR NAME
BUT YOUR WAVES STILL WAIT IN VAIN
EVERY MOMENT, EVERY YEAR

AND SUMMER WON'T BE THE SAME
AND FOR THIS YOU ARE TO BLAME
AND SUMMER WON'T BE THE SAME
AND NEVER WILL BE AGAIN

BUT YOU ARE...
