Before the Light Is Gone - BeeWaee
I knew there was something I wanted you to hear
But every time I came close, the words would disappear
I thought another evening would give me better time
So I watched the summer passing with the truth still on my mind
We spent the warmer afternoons talking until late
About the lives we almost chose and all the turns we made
Nothing looked important then, but now I understand
Those ordinary hours were the ones I wished would last
You made familiar days feel harder to forget
Even after I went home, some part of you stayed with me
I began to watch the doorway and listen for your steps
That was when I understood how quietly a heart can change
The evening light is fading a little earlier now
The air has started changing, though summer is still around
And I do not want the season to close without a word
Some feelings grow too precious to leave them unspoken
I cannot know what happens after I tell you this
Maybe tomorrow finds us living just as we did
But I would rather risk the silence that follows something true
Than spend another season wishing I had told you
Before the last light leaves us, I need to say
You mattered to me
