I wish that everything 
Could be the way it was 
But too many things have changed 
Time has come, to fulfill promises 
Touching came easy 
But holding takes more 

We shall overcome... 

I cry, but I've run out of tears 
You used to lick them dry 
To ease my pain 
Do what it takes to make me 
Cry again 
Tears are the fruits of unconsciousness 

We shall overcome... 

I smile, but it's lost without you 
You used to make me smile within 
My heart 
Do what it takes to make me smile again 
You know the secrets, you made the code 

We shall overcome...
