A Dream in a Small Room - Enlly Blue
Hello love
Are you sleeping well
The moon is high
On my windowsill
I lit a candle
Though it's late
It helps me speak without the weight
The tea's gone cold
I still hold the cup
Pretending that you're still showing up
Your coat still hangs behind my chair
As if you left part of you there
I'm breathing in but feel half full
The nights are sharp, the silence dull
Won't you tell me how to be alone
Without becoming stone
How do I live where your voice once stayed
Teach me to walk through the quiet you made
The clock still ticks like it always did
But time won't move from where you hid
I clean the room, I make the bed
Still hoping you'll return instead
They say I'm strong, but I'm not that brave
I just wear grace like a borrowed name
Some mornings bloom, then wilt too soon
I drink them slowly with a spoon
So won't you tell me how to be alone
Without becoming stone
How do I live where your voice once stayed
Teach me to walk through the quiet you made
You were the song I never wrote down
Now I hum it when no one's around
And every night I close my eyes
You're still the dream that never dies
So won't you tell me how to love the ache
Without letting it take
How do I breathe in this hollow parade
Teach me to walk through the quiet you made
