Soft Empty Sheet

Fading light through the curtains Seem just me in the quiet Holding on to a dream Room feels bigger when the day's gone away Shadows stretch long but they don't have much to say Phone lights up empty, no name on the screen Chasing your ghost in the space in between Loneliness wraps around like a soft empty sheet Heartbeats echoing slow in this one-person beat I read Reach for the warmth that was never quite mine Floating alone in the glow of the night Pillow still holds the shape where you used to lay Memories flicker like stars that won't stay When you're gone, you're gone, you're gone Shadows fog up from the breath I can't share Wishing the silence would turn into air Loneliness wraps around like a soft empty sheet Heartbeats echoing slow in this one-person beat I reach for the warmth that was never quite mine Floating alone in the glow of the night Maybe tomorrow The ache will dissolve Or maybe I'll learn how to fill up the hole Drift through the hours Paint pictures in blue Hoping a spark finds its way back to you Loneliness wraps around like a soft empty sheet Heartbeats echoing slow in this one-person beat I reach for the warmth that was never quite mine Floating alone in the glow of the night Pillow still holds the shape where you used to lay Memories flicker like stars that won't stay Memories flicker like stars that won't stay Heartbeats echoing slow in this one-person beat Heartbeats echoing slow in this one-person beat Heartbeats echoing slow in this one-person beat Heartbeats echoing slow in this one-person beat Heartbeats echoing slow in this one-person beat Heartbeats echoing slow in this one-person beat
