Beside you, I drank from the pitcher of life
Whisper as not to wake the land
Timeless and wide in the middle of the night
I wanna sing again
How many times I've watched the sun
Rise and die, you know I've been alone
Sunlight burns on the water, the blues
Fall on you like a word unmade
Never to be the same
It was slow but for so long
I watched every gain I thought I'd made
Tumble to the ground
Silence through the rooms of this house
Hold every answer ever come at the end
Timeless and wide in the middle of the night
Am I just waiting for you all over again?
How many times I've watched the sun
Rise and die, you know I've been alone
Sunlight burns on the water, the blues
Fall on you like a word unmade
Never going to be the same
It was slow, true and tried
What we've known, I'll carry that through time
Love affirms the pain of life
Your love filled me like the summer ground
Passed me like the rising sign
And I get so nostalgic for you sometimes
