When the Music Stopped
When the music stopped
I could hear you breathing
I could hear us snoring
I could hear the cry of coyotes in the distance
I could hear the whispering trees in the dark
I could hear every pulse beat of your heart
As you slept
When the music stopped
I could hear our giggles
I could hear the singing birds in the waking dawn
I could hear our stories, happy times
I could hear the humming flow of your blood as you stayed close to me
I could hear our dreams, more vividly than ever
As you loved
When the music stopped
Sometimes our lives seemed so slim
And our time felt so limited
Other times, our errors were erasable
Whiting out all the pain, to only love
