Lyrics

For years in this house I stayed a stranger, and left no mark,

no kiss, no warm hand, not one good word did I hear.

My eyes fixed on a road with no trace of kindness on it,

my heart a dried-out desert where no rain of love falls.

No embrace to shelter a soul, no shoulder for the tears,

not one “I love you” to wash away the dust of resentment.

The sound of not-caring coiled through the air at every moment,

and this heavy silence swallowed the tired hope whole.

How cold this air is, the loveless air of a house,

a heart that is asking for affection — how friendless, how foreign.

The longing for one caress, no more than a feather's touch,

years of being unfelt — what wound has stayed on the body?

Perhaps, behind this wall, a heart has been hiding,

whose tongue is knotted shut against saying one single word.

But this famine of feeling — what has it done to my heart?

years without love — what has it brought down on my head?

And yet I, in this very desert, am still planting hope

that one day this silence might be broken by the one I love.

That they would say a word of affection, spare one warm embrace,

and after all these years, perhaps I would be let go of grief.
