Speaking After a Dream

The walls close in and I find you
A silhouette standing in the blue
The clouds fell apart and I called to the sky
I am left now only to wonder why

Coffee drips into my cup
As my eyes are filling up
‘Cause everything reminds what I did that day
I had to cut him loose, now I have something to say….

So, here I stand
Your wish is my command
It’s been you from the start
And it’s tearing me apart

I just can’t see for the hair in my eyes
And I’ve lost my way but it’s no big surprise
Time I let it so you this is true
You hold my heart strings, the one I love is you.
