Every night that goes between
I feel a little less
As you slowly go away from me
This is only another test
Every day you do not come
Your softness fades away
Did I ever really care that much
Is there anything left to say
[Chorus]
Every hour of fear I spend
My body tries to cry
Living through each empty night
A deadly call inside
I haven't felt this way I feel
Since many a years ago
But in those years and the lifetimes past
I did not deal with the road
And I did not deal with you I know
Though the love has always been
So I search to find an answer there
So I can truly win
[Chorus]
So I try to say good-bye my friend
Id like to leave you with something more
But never ever been a blue calm sea
I have always been a storm
Always been a storm
Oh always been a storm
I have always been a storm
We were frail
She said "every night he will break your heart"
I should've known from the first
Id be the broken-hearted
But I loved you from the start
Not all the prayers in the world could save us
I feel a little less
As you slowly go away from me
This is only another test
Every day you do not come
Your softness fades away
Did I ever really care that much
Is there anything left to say
[Chorus]
Every hour of fear I spend
My body tries to cry
Living through each empty night
A deadly call inside
I haven't felt this way I feel
Since many a years ago
But in those years and the lifetimes past
I did not deal with the road
And I did not deal with you I know
Though the love has always been
So I search to find an answer there
So I can truly win
[Chorus]
So I try to say good-bye my friend
Id like to leave you with something more
But never ever been a blue calm sea
I have always been a storm
Always been a storm
Oh always been a storm
I have always been a storm
We were frail
She said "every night he will break your heart"
I should've known from the first
Id be the broken-hearted
But I loved you from the start
Not all the prayers in the world could save us

Regardless of the inspiration, it's a beautiful and achingly-sad song.
But who knows, like you say, an absolutely beautiful song!
It seems to me to be about the end of a relationship and a friendship (presumably, in Stevie Nicks case, Lindsey Buckingham) "As you slowly go away from me/This is only another test"-- the person is drifting away from you, and you're left with memories of what was and what will never be. But you've got to get through it. "So I try to say
/Goodbye my friend"-- it can be hard to say goodbye and lose a friendship when the love is lost. And even though you knew you'd get hurt and your heart would end up broken... "I loved you from the start".
I imediately fell in love with this song from the first moment I heard it. It is so unbelievably sad. I can't believe no one has said anything about this song. Then again not many people commented on other songs. Stevie Nicks writes the most touching songs-she brings something to her music that no one can compete with.
