Don't Turn Away

Somewhere
I lay in the corner crying
As my darkest dreams take shape
I'm forever trying
But I know I can't escape
You promised that this
Was the last time you would leave
I never thought that I'd miss
The air that I can't breathe
I know you're gone
And nothing I can scream will bring you back
You promised you'd be strong
But I know that you're crying somewhere
You stole away into the darkness
To this world you can't explore
I implored you to remain here
Quoth the craven, "Nevermore!"
I know I cannot stay here
And I am ready to rejoice
But now it seems so clear
I lived by your lifeless voice
I know you're gone
And nothing I can dream will bring you back
You promised you'd be strong
But I know that you're crying somewhere
Please don't fall apart
You'll find pleasure in my pleading
I need your blackened heart
To see that I am bleeding
And I know you're crying somewhere
And I know you're dying somewhere
~
Only You/Perfect
You are the gentle breeze
Drifting through my opened window
You are the teasing moonlight
Illuminating my empty room
And did you know that
You are the brightest star
In my seemingly endless night sky
And the reflection in my eye
Promise that you'll stay with me
Am I so easy to reject?
And through this never ending night,
Don't you see that
You make my shattered life perfect
Tantum vos mihi gauisus
Amo vos , tantum vos
Exspecto vos
Tantum Vos est perficio
~
I really need help with the Latin on the last part of the second song, because I am almost sure it probably isn't right. What I intended for it to say is this:
Only you make me happy
I love you, only you
I wait (for) you
Only you are perfect
Anyway, constructive crticisism is highly appreciated... thanks.
