The stars lean
down to kiss you
and I lie awake and miss you
Pour me a heavy dose
of atmosphere
'Cause I'll doze off
safe and soundly
but I'll miss your
arms around me
I'd send a postcard
to you dear
'cause I wish you were here
I'll watch the night
turn light blue
but it's not the same
without you
Because it takes two
to whisper quietly
The silence isn't so bad
till I look at my hands
and feel sad
'Cause the spaces
between my fingers
are right where yours
fit perfectly
I'll find repose in new ways
Though I haven't
slept in two days
'Cause cold nostalgia
chills me to the bone
But drenched
in vanilla twilight
I'll sit on the front porch
all night
Waist deep in thought
because when
I think of you
I don't feel so alone
I don't feel so alone
I don't feel so alone
As many times as I blink
I'll think of you tonight
I'll think of you tonight
When violet eyes get brighter
and heavy wings grow lighter
I'll taste the sky
and feel alive again
And I'll forget the world
that I knew
but I swear I won't forget you
Oh if my voice could
reach back through the past
I'd whisper in your ear
oh darlin' I wish you were here
