I laugh away the tears you made me cry.
This dusk is getting darker every day;
I must have heard your heart beating goodbye.

I watch with calmness, glancing toward the sky.
As ravens sing of love in disarray,
I laugh away the tears you made me cry.

I whisper in the dark a lullaby,
And swear the night was shorter than the day.
I must have heard your heart beating goodbye.

With the dawn that breaks upon me, may I die,
But live only to speak this next cliche;
I laugh away the tears you made me cry.

Until creation settles to reply,
My mind will be your's only to betray
I must have heard your heart beating goodbye.

I let you go and never wondered why,
The colors of my essence turned to gray.
I laugh away the tears you made me cry.
I must have heard your heart beating goodbye.
