I once noticed from there
In your bed, as you slept
And I held my breath
Everything had its own place
And I wondered what space would I take
In the order you kept
I tried to eat like your girlfriend
Just tea in the night, I’d end up
Too hungry to sleep
So lying awake, I would follow the aching inside
I would find
It’s for you won’t be mine
I tried my hardest, for I’d never learned
God’s very simple and love shouldn’t burn
And I would’ve offered you all that you yearned for
But I was still waiting for something to earn
What is that quiet of snow in the night?
The dark rings with white noise
As you stand and drown
Maybe it’s all of these snowflakes, screaming
A choir of mute
As they brace for the ground
Well that’s my ride
Hope you had a good night
You know, you made me happy
Here shake my hand
You make such a good man
Never once did you know me
I tried my hardest, for how do you learn
God’s very simple and love doesn’t burn
And maybe you'd offered me all that I yearned for
But I was still waiting for something to earn
Silly me, waiting
Your room was square I once noticed from there In your bed, as you slept And I held my breath Everything had its own place And I wondered what space would I take In the order you kept I tried to eat like your girlfriend Just tea in the night, I’d end up Too hungry to sleep So lying awake, I would follow the aching inside I would find It’s for you won’t be mine I tried my hardest, for I’d never learned God’s very simple and love shouldn’t burn And I would’ve offered you all that you yearned for But I was still waiting for something to earn What is that quiet of snow in the night? The dark rings with white noise As you stand and drown Maybe it’s all of these snowflakes, screaming A choir of mute As they brace for the ground Well that’s my ride Hope you had a good night You know, you made me happy Here shake my hand You make such a good man Never once did you know me I tried my hardest, for how do you learn God’s very simple and love doesn’t burn And maybe you'd offered me all that I yearned for But I was still waiting for something to earn Silly me, waiting Explain Request ×
