Judas Priest

written by glenn tipton & k.k. downing

so many years that we were one
so many things we've done
the memories alive
but most of me has died

as i struggle with events
i'm offered words of strength
they do not comprehend
the passion we possessed

people tell me what to do
tell me how i should get through
but they haven't got a clue
no-one else comes close to you

i see your eyes before they closed
they looked right inside my soul
and they asked me not to grieve
i tried but still i bleed

i wake up, i break up
i try hard to shake off
the desolation as it grows
as nothing else comes close

and as i stand here by the grave
and the wind calls out your name
i know that time could never heal
the emptiness i feel

people try to give me hope
tell me how i should let go
but they'll never really know
'cause there's nothing else comes close

people tell me what to do
yell me how i should get through
but they haven't got a clue
no-one else comes close to you
