So I Sing

Everything around me still looks the same But the air has lost all feeling As I walk and wonder does not every heart Hear this song that I sing? You poured my glass, full I drank your wine within And now the desire inside of me Fills me to the brim So I sing in notes of question Faded denim and photographs Recalling nights nose to nose When you made me laugh And I drag a ladder to the edge of the world To the cloud where stars choose to leap And I search for the answers there As I peer down to those who sleep Your worries will one day cease When you realize I am not going to leave But there is still the future For me to prove and gain reprieve So I sing in notes of question Wondering if your heart hears my song Because it’s you who I’ve been singing to Now and all along
