I look out the window for a cloud that you might be under
But the sun is going down too early
Invisible embers showering my eyes for none to see, yeah
Where is your calling?
Call it curiosity, you send and I send, we congregate
And it's hereditary, couldn't conceal it
If she hadn't left me
Then would I be lying here with you?
If she hadn't said goodbye
Then would I be smiling here with you?
If she hadn't hurt me
Then would I be healing here with you?
Let go of my sorrow, thanks for leaving me
A separate feeling, one so far away it almost hurts
Common ground
I settle down at square one
Baby steps get bigger every time
Holding you close to me
Sleeping in an empty bed
You twist, I kiss this serenade
And it's hereditary, I want you to feel it
If she hadn't left me
Then would I be lying here with you?
If she hadn't said goodbye
Would I be smiling here with you?
If she hadn't hurt me
Then would I be healing here with you?
Let go of my sorrow, thanks for leaving me
And there's no time any more for playing silly games
So I'll get right to the point
If you say my name and step into my shadow,
I'll wash it away for you
If you take my hand and promise me forever
I'll give it all up for you
If you say my name and step into my shadow
If you take my hand and promise me forever
There's no more pain, the tears are superficial
There's no more shame and the years of pain dissolve
