David Luning - Different Piano Song lyrics

When the leaves fell away to December Sitting as if alone on the front porch steps Holding on to the last of the embers And you stared at the dark As if cursing the stars I wanted to hold you then I wish I could lift away Your veil that's colored with pain But I don't know what to say anymore Cause every time I try To be there by your side You build your walls up high and turn away Darlin I love you And that'll never fade Well I know it surrounds you babe All the weight of the world that drags you down And you can't find the ways to explain it But I see in your eyes Your searchin for quiet And I wanna help you find it I wish I could lift away Your veil that's colored with pain But I don't know what to say anymore Cause every time I try To be there by your side You build your walls up high and turn away Darlin I love you And that'll never fade
