And the final leaf falls

When the clouds fade away

And the sun disappears

The stars go out one by one

And the moon blinks out

And I’m left staring

Out the window

Waiting for you to reply

Waiting for you to tell me

Hush don’t cry

Everything’s gonna be alright

Cause I

I love you

And I

I’ll hold you when you need some one to

Be there

As the clock hands tick

The minutes go by

I lay in bed

Hoping you’ll be my light

Cause everything you think I am

Is not what what I want to be

And I trust you to keep

My secrets but you leave me

Waiting for you to reply

Waiting for you to tell me

Hush honey don’t you cry

Everything will be alright

Cause I

I’ll be here

When you need me

I’ll always let you put

Your burden on my shoulders

Let you rest and take

Your mask off while I stare

Out into space

And I’m trying

And I’m begging

Myself to leave behind

The person I show to everyone else

But instead I keep

Waiting for you to reply

For you to say to me

Hush don’t cry

I’ll make sure that you’re fine

Cause I

I love you

Always have and always will

And you can stop waiting for me

For me

To reply

Thanks! That's what I was going for, even though I don't have the melody yet :)

Beautifully done! It really sounds like it could be made into a song.
