lyrics

Rain drips down your face
You blink at me

As I leave your place



At night I go, all night, yeah all night
Awake, thinking about you
I hear your voice, on the telephone

Oh, this restlessness goes
On and on and on


I have an insane amount of love, for you
And everything you say

Writing it all down
All night, yeah all night

Awake, writing about you
I don’t 
want to forget a moment with you

Oh, these pens to this paper, they go
On and on and on

I tuck your dread away
You were off to sleep, embraced
Opaque

In my arms, you dreamed

Until the dawn

We’d follow our routines
We come to meet
In love

Being with you is not hard
Do you think of me?
Do you know I’m here?
As you’re slumbering
All night, yes all night
Awake, as I am caressing you
Beside you in bed and under a throw
Oh, I want these nights together
to go on and on



Last night I watched through you your window
You forgot to leave the lock unrepaired
Forgot I cared

But it doesn’t matter
I’ll find you
Remind you
In your routines
At my planned place to meet
I’ll take you
To the place you dream
Where I whispered in your ear
When you’re sleeping

I’ll find you
When you’re sleeping

I’ll take you
While you’re dreaming
I’ll protect you

I love you

The goal: to create songs as individual, fictional stories inspired by real people and events in an attempt to make the empty space, which enveloped the songwriter, feel a little bit less empty over the many, many months we were to endure. ... more
