lyrics

This frozen morning, these empty streets
I wish I was there with you, under the sheets
I am awake while the world still sleeps
A man out of time cursed by the knowledge he keeps

We shared everything that we had to give
Loved one another, it made my heart want to live
But the tide is turning, and I am alone
You stay at home while I go on on my own

I don't mind that you never came to my party
I don't mind that you screwed up the notes I sent you

Who am I kidding, it's not meant to be
My home isn't here and I need to be free
These tears and heartache are all that I know
But I've saved us more misery by deciding to go

For one perfect moment we held each other
Our souls intertwined, my beautiful lover
But all the more reason to leave it here
And call it quits while everything is still clear

I don't mind that you never came to my party
I don't mind that you screwed up the notes I sent you
Because last night, I kissed you and told you I loved you
And then you told me you loved me too

I heard you singing softly, I heard you calling softly
A million years of dark would be lit by the spark of your smile
And you know what you do to me, you know the effect you have on me
I'm just glad I held your hand, for a while, for a while

I'll look you up if I'm in town again
But I can't promise you if and I can't promise you when
Sometimes the odds are too tough to beat
You just do your best and try to smile in defeat
One thing's for sure, I feel more of a man
For loving you and for knowing I can
So look me up if you're ever around
I once was lost but thanks to you I'm now found
