I don’t live here anymore, but I wish it could be like before
And there was something there, if only smoke in the air
Won’t bring it back again, can’t get it out of my head
And the melody is just a memory, I play
Cause I don’t live here anymore, but gravity’s hard to ignore
Fall for it every time, couldn’t i read the signs
Guess I'll leave it there, feel the chill in the air
Reminding me, it’s just a fantasy, not the way it is
I try to stay awake for you
More than I could take
If I’m just passing through
I try to stay awake
Staring at the flame
It’s not the same
I don’t live here anymore, so how could you darken my door
But there’s a presence there, perfume in the air
Try to play it down, try not to say it aloud
Living a lie, you can’t capture the light the way it is
I try to stay awake for you
More than I could contain
When you're just passing through
I try to stay awake
Staring at the flame
Burning everything
I didn't say

Come in closer, sun exposure
Hanging heavy, beat unsteady
Still have that number, too close for comfort
I could be chasing ghosts
Keep your secrets, a million reasons
Leave it unsaid, I hold my breath
Sometimes I can’t help but wonder
What happened there
Kept it to myself, could you tell
Summer’s over, full disclosure
I know I’m chasing ghosts
Now winter’s closer, feel her coldest shoulder
I turn my head, see my breath
Sometimes I can’t help but wonder
What happened there
Kept it to myself, could you tell
I know I’m letting you down
And you’re telling me now
Even if I turn around
I know I’m letting you down
And you’re telling me now
Even if I turn around
Wishing it away, don't look away

Dreams, a little late
Dissipate, familiar heartache
Another life drifts into view
Looking right at me but
I look for you
Feel the rush of it
Illusion of the touch of it
How long can we keep this alive
Dream on the side
When we've come this close
Millions of details I can't explain
So I keep them safe for you
For you

See your face, turn around
Call me out in the crowd tonight
Feel my feet, on the ground
Come in closer, it’s loud in the light
Say something now
Say something now
See your face, turn around
Draw a breath let it out, let it lie
Lose my nerve, does it show
Cut me right to the bone and I’m alive
Say something now
Over and over, over and over
Over and over, over and over
Over and over, over and over
Over and over, over and over

Closer, come closer
Closer, come closer you're so far away
Closer, come closer
Closer, come closer ask me to stay
What if the wires got crossed
What if the meaning was lost
Closer, come closer there's too much to say
Closer, come closer hold back the day
What if it wasn't our turn
What if the candle still burns
You're far in space and time
Where you are is here in my mind
