The Finishing Touch
What do you say when your lover says nothing at all
What do you do when she leaves with her friends but not you
Where do you hide from the loneliness tracking you down
The wind only died when I tried to explain
And the finishing touch is the rain
Why was I trying to capture what cannot be caught
Fool, you were blind to a truth you could never be taught
Kisses like Cabernet gone in the blink of her eye
Empty and flat she brings no wine and no love tonight
Photographs fade over time and a heart lays unclaimed
Teardrops and ink make a messy refrain
And the finishing touch is the rain
I never knew heartache like this
I never knew I could cry so
Tears fall unshared at our goodbye
No words that once meant so much
And the rain is the finishing touch
Am I an afterthought all that is left of my life
Memories fade like the drawing of shades
And the finishing touch is the rain
What do you do when she leaves with her friends but not you
Where do you hide from the loneliness tracking you down
The wind only died when I tried to explain
And the finishing touch is the rain
Why was I trying to capture what cannot be caught
Fool, you were blind to a truth you could never be taught
Kisses like Cabernet gone in the blink of her eye
Empty and flat she brings no wine and no love tonight
Photographs fade over time and a heart lays unclaimed
Teardrops and ink make a messy refrain
And the finishing touch is the rain
I never knew heartache like this
I never knew I could cry so
Tears fall unshared at our goodbye
No words that once meant so much
And the rain is the finishing touch
Am I an afterthought all that is left of my life
Memories fade like the drawing of shades
And the finishing touch is the rain
