|
By the window up in the bedroom |
|
I can hear the storm come |
|
From many roads away |
|
And it brings the night |
|
If the ones who died sit around me |
|
I hope they're going to stay |
|
And that maybe you'll arrive |
|
In the rain that's rolling in |
|
These summer nights |
|
I feel you on my skin |
|
Winter came as a load |
|
Frozen down to the bone |
|
I lived here half asleep |
|
Walking nights to the road |
|
Empty, drunk and alone |
|
In hopes you'd come to me |
|
Before the morning |
|
Before you're running |
|
But why are you running? |
|
Where are you running? |
|
Home? |
|
Once I knew you |
|
Lay my head upon your lap |
|
Once I knew you |
|
In your eyes a calming light |
|
Once I knew you |
|
And your hand upon my back |
|
Once I knew you |
|
In a life ain't coming back |
