I’ll Never Leave

Genre: Folk/Acoustic

Lyrics

I’ve spent my words so carelessly
I can see there’s nothing left to say
There’s no impression that I’ve left to make
Before I fade away

After I’ve given all that I have
I’m left with empty hands to show
Just don’t turn around to look at me
Because you know you’re free to go

But your kiss–I can taste it still
And I know you don’t feel this now, but you will
Though I know that you’ve already gone
I can’t help it, this presence lingers on and on

So I’ll burn these scenes into your mind
Etched memories across a slate
I’ll write these words across the sky
So you’ll see them when you close your eyes – just wait

In restless dreams I’ll haunt your sleep
I’ll sit with you in your solitude
Into your home, into your bed
Into the ground I’ll follow you

But your kiss–I can taste it still
And I know you don’t feel this now, but you will
Though I know that you’ve already gone
I can’t help it, this presence lingers on and on

Until that day when you run to me
And join me outside my sanity
I’ll never leave.
