lyrics

I think that something’s out of place
Something’s missing in the space that your body
Held between my reason and my faith

What if something could have changed
What good are somethings if I can’t recall
The sound of you saying my name?

When I can’t hear you anymore
(I can’t hear you - I can’t feel you)
(How) Can I be who you adore?
(Can I still be what you’re longing for?)

I feel the absence of your gaze
And miss the subtle way your eyes could call me
Back into the warmth of your embrace

I wish nothing would have changed
For I am nothing but a memory of
The perfect picture you painted

When I can’t hear you anymore
(I can’t hear you - I can’t feel you)
(How) Can I be who you adore?
(Can I still be what you’re longing for?)

When I can’t hear you anymore
(I can’t hear you - I can’t feel you)
(How) Can I be who you adore?
(Can I still be what you’re longing for?)

Suddenly I feel the world around me fade
In the distance I am greeted by the shape
Of your shadow as it approaches the stage
So I listen for the words I hope you’ll say
I can’t hear them but they’re written on your face
Set me free and you’ll find you’re losing the weight
In your way..

Bittersweet memories, rush right into me
Bittersweet memories, fill the space in between
Bittersweet memories, are the only relief
Bittersweet memories, will not bring you back to me
