lyrics

This morning I woke before the sunrise
It’s not like I thought that I needed the time
But I’m glad that I did, and I’ll do it again
‘Cause darkness was covered in light

On that first morning after you died
What were they saying about your life?
Was anyone glad because you were gone?
I’d like to think I would be crying

I’d be crying
I would cry
I would

How many times have I told you I love you?
And only a book ever tells me it back
And why sometimes does it feel like I know you
And sometimes like we’ve never met?

And people are always talking about you
And saying your name when they get upset
I wonder if you talk about me
Or think of me when you are sad

When you’re sad
You are sad
You are

Since I have known you, life has been different
It’s hard to explain the choices I’ve made
But the choices aren’t really choices at all
You just won’t leave me alone

When you were twelve you once got lost
I got lost too when I was sixteen
They looked for you, and you looked for me
I can’t believe anyone found us

That they found us
That they found
Us
