lyrics

Seeing you is like getting home
just as the cold starts to seep in
and throwing my boots into my room.

Seeing you is like reaching for the bowl on the top shelf
and finding chocolate I forgot was there.

I often wish I could shake off my memories
like shaking dust off the bedsheets
but every time I try, I pull the blankets back down
and find you lying there

I went for a long walk
trying to wear myself down
but you were in the wind
the breeze had learned how to pronounce your name
and you were in the trees, swaying

I brushed past a rose bush
with branches like your fingers, grasping
leaving red marks in the shape of your smile.
