lyrics
Where's the joy that lights your world The magic word that brings you home Spells for the earthquakes in your heart The chills that never leave your bones Fear's the chain I drag around Can't even look it in the eye When we turn a turn too close There's nothing that I need to hide Keys inside the glove compartment Christmas trees outside your old apartment Your laugh's a silver bell that's clear & true It takes all I have to keep my thoughts from running away with you When everything love taught me was a lie You'd think that I'd know better But hope's the string that hangs around Like price tags on a sky blue sweater Confessions that begin to fall like Blood-red leaves outside your old apartment You shine like string lights draped under the moon It takes all I have to keep my heart from running away with you Your face burns warm blood in the cold The breath we share is visible Light as a fistful of aurora All of mine for all of yours The hair that waves over your eye The closest I'll get to goodbye I'm better off in emptiness I'm free when I can't find myself A hell that blows beneath my wings A heaven lifted in your hands There's a song I heard you sing With a grace I never had Unknown stars, heartbreaker nights Disappointment under glass A two-step under Two Street lights Sometimes the detour is the path

about

I went through a phase (can you call four years a phase?) where I'd write a song for the longest night of the year. I skipped 2018 but here's a new one & here's hoping you get everything you wish for xx
