Never heard this house so quiet
But I still feel the desolation
Never seen this house so empty
Long gone the congregation
And the memories unfold
They are growing wild like weeds
They blossom in the dust
And I'm just following their lead

I've been standing guard for days
And like a ghost I rearrange
Every little piece of you
Back into place
And I wish I had the guts
To call out your name
I just wanted to let you know
Your love was not in vain
Not in vain
Not in vain

I hope you have found salvation
Above the darker clouds
You left me with a strong vocation
And I'm still here to make you proud
The cut is still too fresh
But you know one day I will sing
You never had an easy life
But you gave me everything

I've been standing guard for days
And like a ghost I rearrange
Every little piece of you
Back into place
And I wish I had the guts
To call out your name
I just wanted to let you know
Your love was not in vain
Not in vain
Not in vain
Not in vain
I've been standing guard for days
And like a ghost I rearrange
Every little piece of you
Back into place
And I wish I had the guts
To call out your name
I just wanted to let you know
Your love was not in vain
