Lyric

Can't fall asleep, so I open the pane

The city is cold, breathing in the rain

Looking at lights from the store down the street

I thought I heard your laughter, soft and sweet

Sharing that coffee on a day long ago

Walking in silence, with nowhere to go

You copied my habit of looking down low

Just to make me smile, with your gentle glow

The weight in my chest is starting to fray

Touched by your light, it’s fading away

Now when I see a tired face in the crowd

I’m speaking more softly, not feeling so proud

(Ah) I try to hide it, acting like I’m through

(Yeah) But I carry the warmth that belongs to you

Drying my shirt in the cool of the night

Rewriting messages, searching for light

"Thank you" is heavy, so I leave it behind

Mixing my heart with the seasons I find

The excuses of yesterday softly dissolve

In the silence you gave me, my problems resolve

Even when reading of strangers in pain

I feel a small ache, like a soft summer rain

(Uh) More than the word "kindness" in a line

(Woo) It’s the time that you gave, that I call mine

In the rush of the people, the station gate

Chasing a shadow before it’s too late

Even if I can’t reach you, I’m doing fine

Feeling the warmth in this hand of mine

Unraveling the man that I used to be

Keeping the shadow you cast over me

I want to meet eyes with a stranger today

With a soft-spoken word, in a gentle way

(Ah) You never said much, you just let it be

(La) But you’re still changing my tomorrow for me
