歌詞

In this quiet room

I’m still searching for a trace of you

Even on days you might not show

I tell myself "today's the day," you know

I open the window, I wipe down the floor

Waiting for you with nothing face anymore

Pretending I’m used to the silence around

Deciding I won't expect any sound

But the hands of the clock on the wall

Are moving so loud, making me feel so small

Just so you can come by anytime

I keep this room so clean and sublime

But inside my heart, it’s a beautiful mess

And how to clean it up, I cannot guess

On the morning I thought we would meet

You tell me you can't, and I feel the defeat

I knew it could happen, I knew it inside

But the disappointment is too hard to hide

I don't wanna blame you, or put you on display

I don't wanna trouble you in any kind of way

Because waiting is all I can ever do

I’m just staying right here, still waiting for you

If I smile without saying a word

Will I look mature, or just unheard?

The more I swallow the loneliness whole

The stronger I feel, taking control

But when the night comes and falls on my head

I end up calling out your name instead

With a voice that nobody else can hear

Whispering softly, to the shadows near

Even without a promise to hold

Even without a future foretold

If you're in my heart right now, in the light

That should be enough to make it alright

Even if we can't meet, or touch skin to skin

My feelings remain, right here from within

Until this waiting stops breaking my mind

And turns into love of a beautiful kind

You don't have to come, don't force it tonight

Because waiting is all I can do in the light

I’ll stay in this room, till everything's right

In the room that I cleaned up for two

The sunset is falling, fading to blue

Only my expectations are left on the floor

And today slips away, passing the door

If the day comes when the door opens wide

And I find you standing right there on the side

I don't need words, no talk of the past

Just hold me close, make the moment last

The reason I believe in a day yet to be

The reason I trust what I can't even see

Is because waiting is all I can ever do

For someone as precious and special as you

In this room kept so clean and so clear

Today I just wait, holding you near

By the phone that refuses to ring or to shine

My heart stays beside you, forever divine
